Two of SIZING CUSIMANO’s three career victories have come on this track. His win here last month was his first over fences but he remains well treated, despite a 5lb rise. High Counsel is interesting back on a faster surface but Alminar has been let down by his jumping since scoring at Wincanton. Stop The World needs to up his game and Red Giant and I Just Know have plenty to prove at present.
