A tough handicap to call here for punters with many in form rivals in opposition including Fast Mix, Pardishar and Carly Bay and the nomination goes to Pardishar. The gelding from the Gary Moore yard has been in good form of late and was a good second behind Grand Finale well clear of the third, he runs off the same mark here and will be hard to beat. Fast Mix rates the main danger as he was a fair second behind Victory Gunner last time and with Tony McCoy now taking the ride is a danger to all. Carly Bay is also worthy of respect she is a course and distance winner and was a fair third behind Fabrezan last time. Of the remainder a market move for Mark Of Zorro should be noted but for the winner we return to Pardishar.
