Verdict

MORITO DU BERLAIS is related to several winners and is fancied to make a winning start to his career. The Liquidator is the obvious danger having finished second in a Listed event at Cheltenham in November on his first run for David Pipe as Carlton Jack concedes weight all round after making a successful debut at Catterick in December. Duke's Affair and Monksgold have also shown decent form but Turoyal may do better with this run under his belt.
