Formscan - HATOS has been consistent in defeat this year and his reliability earns him the vote. In comparison to his peak official ratings, the nine-year-old's current mark of 83 is very persuasive in this company. Gata Ban isn't always the most fluent of jumpers, but she was clear of the rest when second over C&D last time and could have a big say off the same figure. Friends Don't Ask stays well and is the pick of the remainder.
