In depth

Verdict

Intomist has been knocking on the door but is still 6lb higher than for his last victory. Al's Memory beat Living The Life at Wolverhampton in November but the latter could turn the tables on better terms here, though was behind NASSAU STORM over course and distance a couple of weeks ago. Bill Knight's gelding showed a smart turn of foot to score that day and may be worth sticking with in his current mood. Favourite Treat's second at Kempton in December was cause for optimism and, though he's disappointed since, this represents a drop in class and he makes more appeal than Corporal Maddox and the returning Malaysian Boleh.
