Verdict
Olivino won this two years ago but races off a 10lb higher mark this time around and has been well below par in recent runs. Rushwee only won a seller at Wetherby in May while Capdalight was put up 10lb after winning at Ffos Las and is upped in class today. Dereks, Boogie Dancer and Nothing Is Forever are all previous C&D winners who can't be left out of calculations but we'll give another chance to AMERICAN ART. David Pipe's gelding may have found his Stratford run coming too soon after a promising reappearance at Bangor. At his best on fast ground on the Flat, the six-year-old still has some scope over hurdles and his pace should be an asset around this tight circuit.
