Verdict
Harouet won this last year and, by coincidence, LIVELY BARON was beaten only a head by the former at this track last month. Donald McCain's charge looks sure to go close with a similar effort. No Planning also has claims on his recent third at Wetherby and Bescot Springs is not easily overlooked despite having found one too good on his last couple of outings. Jaunty Journey is 9lb higher than his win at Uttoxeter while Rhum had gone close at Perth before unseating at Fontwell last time. Global Power and Monsieur Cadou look best of those returning to action.
