This looks a match between Dramatic Review and Aviation with the last named getting the nod. A winner on his hurdles debut, Aviation should have no problems following up on that success here. He was convincing enough at Cartmel and is taken to score again with his penalty. His main threat Dramatic Review ran well enough on his debut at Stratford and had every chance at the last that day when a staying on third. The stables horses have been in good form of late so any market support should be noted. Of the newcomers Casalese looks to have the best flat form and although no world beater on the level he will prove better over hurdles. But for the winner we return to Aviation.
