HARD TO FORGET beat Lord Getaway more than seven lengths in this last year, though is still 8lb higher. He also won at Doncaster two runs ago and the ground has turned in his favour again. Frau Georgia could figure if fully wound up while Kilbrook drops into this grade for the first time since successful at Carlisle in the autumn. Captain Biggles is potentially well treated on his chasing bow and has more scope than the luckless Larkbarrow Lad. Rocky's Treasure is feeling his age so Premier D'troice is probably the pick of the remainder.
