Attimo wasn't hard pressed to complete a double at Southwell last time and is on an upward curve, though has another 7lb rise to contend with. Golden Milan has become impossible to predict and Vice Et Vertu is getting no closer but Brownville continues his tumble down the weights while better is expected of Benzel and Dusk Till Dawn now going chasing. MOORLANDS MIST is probably capable of better than he's shown so far over the larger obstacles. He got taken off his feet over hurdles at Haydock last time but the ground had turned against him and, with rain forecast, he should be more at home under today's conditions. Warwick winner Maybe Plenty looks best of the rest as St Johns Point appears to have lost his way.
