ELVIS MAIL was probably flattered by his proximity to last week’s Aintree third Rouge Vif here last month and carries a penalty. But that form is so superior to his rivals in this that he is hard to oppose. Winning pointer Court Jurado has been off the track since disappointing on his debut under Rules at Sedgefield in November but should be capable of better. Mahler Supreme ran better than expected last time but Curramore will need to improve on his run at Ayr last month.
