Verdict
Triple Chocolate won at Windsor last time with Vallarta in close attendance but the latter re-opposes on better terms and may well reverse running. Mon Brav and Amadeus Wolfe Tone are both capable at this level if producing their best and Regal Dan could go well reverting to 6f. Majestic Song has scope for further progress and so does DINNERATMIDNIGHT. Ralph Beckett's charge failed to pick up the leaders in soft ground at Leicester last time but can resume winning ways back on a faster surface.
