Verdict
Nigel Twiston-Davies has trained the winner of this twice in the last six years so it would be no surprise to see a big run from Church Bray. Nicky Richards runs two, with course and distance winner Winter Alchemy possibly the pick, as does Lisa Harrison while Lucinda Russell has a trio of entries. RYTON RUNNER couldn't handle the step up in grade at Newcastle last time but wasn't disgraced and knows his way around here. He races off the same mark as maiden Jac The Legend so gets the nod.
