Aveiro can score here at the main expense of Daunted and Frank's Quest. The selection comes here in good heart, comes out third best in the ratings but a repeat of his course and distance win of January 20 makes him a leading player here. Daunted is also a course and distance winner and, best in on the ratings, has to hold solid claims also. Frank's Quest, especially with his useful rider claiming seven, is another for the shortlist and Spanish Star caused a surprise when winning here three days ago, but may not get the race run to suit this time. Overall, then, because he's in good heart, it's Aveiro for us.
