        Verdict

        A wide open contest in which many have chances on there best form. Travellers Tale, Royal Approval, On Guard and Noble Pursuit are all sure to have there supporters but we prefer to take a chance on Analyze. The gelding from the Mick Channon yard won well at Necastle last time out and although he has risen in the weights he will be hard to beat with conditions again in his favour. Travell'ers Tale was a good second on his final run last season behind Internationalguest and a reproduction of that effort would see him go close but he has a 185 day absence to overcome. Royal Approval is from a yard in top form but he appears to have plenty of weight for what he has actually achived. Noble Pursuit is another that could go well despite top weight but his best form is over shorter trips. On Guard won well at Warwick last time out and a reproduction of that effort would give him definite place claims but that was over a longer trip. Of the remainder Aswan would be another to consider off what looks a fair mark.
