Northside Prince is usually thereabouts in this grade without being quite good enough and it could prove a similar story today. Marcus Tregoning is looking for a double in this after training last year's winner and OPERA BOX has leading claims. She just failed to catch the useful Boonga Roogeta at Doncaster last time and today's longer trip will suit. Guising is also unexposed but up 5lb for his recent win at Windsor while Novirak is another to consider dropping down a grade after a good effort at Epsom. High Office and Cousin Khee should go well and Cockney Sparrow has been in fine form over hurdles of late so is probably the pick of the remainder.
