In depth

Verdict

Mibleu continues to defy his years and the winner has franked the form of his latest course and distance second. But we just prefer WESTER ROSS, who was runner-up in a much stronger heat at Ffos Las on his latest start and has the beating of Colin Tizzard's veteran on a line through Benny's Quest. Engai made a winning start over fences at Southwell and can only improve but it's difficult to make a case for any of the others on recent form, Tri Nations having finished last at Stratford on Thursday.
