Verdict
SPIRIT OF CONISTON won this in 2009 and is still in fine form. He's now on his highest mark for a very long time but has the best of the draw and can gain the 14th success of his career. Surely This Time, another who is well berthed and going well, lost his maiden tag at Newcastle last month and has to be considered. Avertuoso was in good form at this time a year ago and has dropped back to a reasonable mark but last week's Bath winner El Dececy rarely runs over the minimum trip and has the worst of the draw. Ingenti, a winner over this distance at Carlisle, finished a long way last when tried over 7f at Redcar and Bailadeira was beaten 11l when runner-up there recently.
