INFORMATEUR, a past winner here, has been in decent form this season and looks sure to run his race again. This looks a weaker handicap than those he’s been contesting lately. Uno Mas is very attractively weighted on last season’s form but he’s not being showing much while Juge Et Parti has regressed again since completing a double at Plumpton in November. Lostnfound also comes with a caution sign attached with Laskadine preferred to Demi Sang of the two Ben Haslam entries.
