The market will almost certainly be a good guide to what's expected here but Paul Nicholls' Ambrose Hill Lad doesn't look anything special on breeding and a few of the stable's bumper horses have disappointed lately. AP McCoy is an interesting booking for Tim Vaughan's Snurge gelding Chuckery but the one to beat may be SHUFFLEWING. Hughie Morrison's daughter of Sakhee is a half-sister to several winners on the Flat and may have more speed than her rivals.
