CROWN AND GLORY (NAP) will be difficult to beat in this if reproducing his run at the track over a slightly shorter trip earlier this month when winning by 12 lengths. Thedrinkymeister has the look of a chaser but his second at Bangor last month was the first time he'd been placed in five attempts. Ground and trip could cause problems for Pay The King but Bonnet's Vino is unexposed over fences and capable on her day. River Purple is almost back on a winning mark but has been badly out of form for a while.
