In depth
Verdict
Hunter chaser Justin Mac goes well fresh and won't mind the ground. He goes well for Ben Shaw and he looks set to have a big say in this. Royal Beluga was well beaten off this mark last time, but that was only his third effort over fences and he may be open to some improvement. Plumpton winner Inaki looks to have plenty on his plate off an 11lbs higher mark, while Glanmerin has become inconsistent. Both Dragon King and Prairie Minstrel come her in good form and must have every chance, However, a chance is taken with Shuttleworth, who ran better than his final position suggested at Ascot. This looks an easier contest and he will be well handled by Stuart Morris.
