Verdict
Edgar was hating the heavy ground here last time and is better judged on an earlier win at Leicester. Turban can never be ruled out around here but is hard to predict and looks held by Vexillum on recent form. Shintori is another who never seems to run two races alike but Bally Lagan hinted at a revival when second at Leicester. TRUCKERS TANGLE is 0-12 under Rules but has found only one too good in two of his three chase starts and has more scope than most of his rivals.
