The Cayterers has been placed over hurdles recently but has claims on his fourth at Leicester in May, while Hawaana is holding his form well with a couple of placed efforts since winning at Epsom last month. Aerial Acclaim keeps threatening to get his head in front without actually doing so, while Amistress could make the frame off her current mark. However, in a open contest the vote goes to MAURITINO, who was unsuited by the lack of pace at Windsor last time but had been in fine form both on the Flat and over hurdles before that.
