Verdict
Sahf London, Royal Wedding and Dante's Diamond make the shortlist here with Sahf London the selection. A modest winner on the Flat Sahf London was well fancied on his re-appearance and ran respectably. He will be sharper for the run and can go close. A winner on the all weather, Royal Wedding has shaped respectably this season over hurdles, hitting the frame at a big price last time when upped to handicap grade. Dante's Diamond was a seller winner at Wolverhampton and ran respectably though an outsider over hurdles last time, hitting the frame. Sahf London can take this.
