GONE FOREVER has stronger form than both Bulas Belle and Falcon's Ginger. He found only the unbeaten Coyaba too good at Towcester three weeks ago and looks the safest option. The remainder are all newcomers and look nothing special on breeding. Trooper Royal could prove the best of them especially if supported in the betting. He's a brother to a couple of winners on the Flat and a half-brother to hurdles winner Ubi Ace and makes more appeal than Starplex, Spencers Lad and Lilly's Legend.
