In depth
Verdict
Present M'Lord, Treasulier and Fisherman Jack make the shortlist here, with Present M'Lord the selection. Treasulier is a very genuine type, and has been placed on his last eight starts. He won at Wincanton three outings ago but has not been out for almost eight months so fitness may be a problem. Fisherman Jack won at Plumpton in January, and though not successful since he has run some good races in defeat. He was nibbled at in the market for his seasonal re-appearance but got no further than the first and may just need the run. Present M'Lord lost his maiden tag last time at Warwick, and though he has gone up five pounds for that narrow win, he is lightly campaigned and Present M'Lord can score again.
