Verdict

It's difficult to see beyond INGLEBY ARCH in this contest. David Barron's eight-time C&D winner is favourably treated at the weights and can boast the best recent form when beating Punching here in February. A line through the latter gives leaves Benato The Great something to find with the selection though he does have scope for further improvement, while Bonnie Prince Blue and Cape Of Storms will both need to step up on their recent winning form to get involved in the finish. The remaining pair look up against it on today's terms.
