Alberich (rated 85) and Mi Odds (rated 80) are well ahead of their rivals on official ratings and should have this between them, with the former selected. The former is a course and distance winner and should be sharper for his January run, which was over two miles. His rider also takes a useful five pounds off his back. Mi Odds, also a course and distance winner, landed back-to-back wins at Southwell in February and should give a good account of himself. Strictly Speaking, whose sole win came over course and distance, hails from the in-form Paul Cole yard but has a bit to find on official figures. African Dawn, just touched off in a Lingfield seller last time, has place claims.
