Anthony Honeyball has done really well since taking charge of Doctor Foley, who was absent for 456 days before returning in March. The move to staying chases has worked the oracle and he has a solid chance of completing the hat-trick despite his 7lb penalty. However, he didn't appear to have too much in hand at Fontwell last time and LADY WILBERRY rates a viable alternative at likely prices. Yet to score in 13 tries under Rules, she's still performed creditably and put up a good effort when runner-up on just a second fencing start last time. She should prove competitive in this company. Wind Tor is worth a place on the shortlist as she stays this trip well and usually runs her race, whilst Entre Deux could get involved if backing up a much better effort last time when a close fourth at Warwick.
