Alben Star has been in terrific form on the all-weather. Jimmy Styles usually keeps better company than this while Zanetto was in good form around this time last year and seems to go well fresh. Out Do is the type to improve again this year while Ninjago, Tamayuz Star and Secretinthepark are all previous course and distance winners. Ashpan Sam did well last year but so did SECONDO and Roger Charlton's four-year-old might still be well treated. Both of his wins have come on good to firm going and his second to Lancelot Du Lac at York in September worked out well. He should go close as Goldream was only eighth in this 12 months ago and races off the same mark.
