Verdict
WELL INSURED has won once and been placed five times here and though returning from a long absence looks well enough treated under his young rider to go well at a big price so he's handed the vote. Zambezi Tiger created a 66/1 shock when scoring here in March but ran poorly the following month. His trainer reported he's best fresh so a long absence isn't a concern. Manorov hasn't had much racing but looked as though this trip would suit when staying on over 1m2f last time and should be kept on the right side in a moderate handicap. Luso's Way has now had 24 career starts without winning but ran very well over hurdles at Punchestown last month and won't get many better opportunities than this.
