Verdict
Juanito Chico and First Up both met trouble in-running behind Atty Perse at Sandown two weeks ago. This is a much better race that the one Yamarhaba Malayeen won at Kempton but he did it very easily that day and could have been let in lightly. Come On Come On won his only start at Brighton last year but also steps up in class whereas stablemate Graphite Storm is eased in grade. Endless Gold was second in a big field at Nottingham last month and that experience will stand him in good stead here but AUBERGE DU LAC confirmed his progression when getting of the mark at Wolverhampton at the start of the year and may be the pick of the weights ahead of Ernststavroblofeld and recent Bath winner International Law.
