Folk Tune is quirky but has been enjoying himself over hurdles during the winter while Euston Square came back to form when second at Haydock last week. The consistent Chatterer is a rare runner here for Lambourn handler Marcus Tregoning and Hail Bold Chief only found Raleigh Quay half-a-length too good when favourite at Hamilton a week ago, though he may struggle to beat C&D scorer Bright Applause on a line through the winner. King's Counsel has also been successful over track and trip but BAVARIAN NORDIC looks worth an interest in this off bottom weight. It's a long time since he got his head in front but is well treated now as a result and his latest third at Newcastle suggested his turn wasn't far away again.
