MINELLA SPECIAL is upped 9lb for his win at Fakenham in January. But it helps that he's dropping down a grade for this and Paul Henderson's charge is fancied to go in again. Invicta Lake beat Ya Hafed over a shorter trip here in December but neither have ran up to the same level since and Turbo Du Ranch makes more appeal with a conditional's claim negating a 7lb penalty for his victory at Wetherby. Teshali can be forgiven a poor effort over 2m last time and has a decent shout on his earlier placed efforts and course winner Madame Jasmine is not out of this despite being pulled up on her latest start in December.
