Verdict
A huge field for this finale and it looks wide-open. Western Rules makes plenty of appeal as he came up against the in-form Tawseef at Bangor last month and can reverse Wetherby running with Little Bruce on better terms. Hidden Cargo gives the impression he is capable of better while Big Penny twice finished second over course and distance last month. Muthabir won at Kempton in November but is now on a career-high mark and Allez Jacques seems to be devoid of a change of pace. ONE OF US made all to get off the mark in a competitive affair at Ascot. He’s gone up 4lb but his yard is in cracking form and Lizzie Kelly is still good value for her claim.
