Verdict
Tommy G is a three-times course winner but Star Of St James is only 1-20 on Turf and was a place behind JUDGMENT CALL when the top weight finished second to Muntadab off this mark over track and trip in October. Flylikeaneagle won three times last season, including once here, and is fit from a campaign hurdling while Copper Mountain won off a higher mark at Wetherby around this time last year.
