Formscan - Dan Skelton's string continue in flying form and Louis Veron is sure to prove popular after opening his account at Warwick recently. However, the five-year-old does have more on his plate shouldering a penalty, which could leave the door open for MASKARVEL. Although turned over at short odds when third over C&D 17 days ago, the Masked Marvel gelding has a race of this nature within his compass judged on previous performances. Reopposing second Take The Boat completes the shortlist.
