No favourite has won this in nine renewals. Tortoni deserves a change of luck and went very close when tried over this trip for the first time at Kempton. Andalieb started favourite at Leicester after showing promise on his debut at Newmarket and performed well enough to give him a fair chance here but JOHNNO looks the one to be on. John Hills' colt didn't show much in better company at Ascot and Newbury before an improved effort at Newmarket recently and this is a distinct drop in class. Hey Fiddle Fiddle has shown some promise and should be noted on her Polytrack debut while Jamie Osborne's newcomers are always worth a look and his Fistful Of Dollars, a son of Holy Roman Emperor, is related to several winners.
