Verdict

Pret A Thou loves the mud and conditions probably weren't testing enough for him at Haydock last time. But CALL ME A LEGEND was racing for the first time since winning at Ascot around this time last year when fourth at Newbury in November. She has the beating of Fighting Chance on that run and would have to go close if that outing has blown away a few cobwebs. Silk Drum is versatile but hasn't raced since winning on the Flat last May and gets only 2lb from Moon Over Miami, who is back in this grade for the first time since scoring at Ffos Las in November.
