    Verdict

    NAGPUR is likely to start a short-priced favourite despite having to concede 12lb all round. A winner on heavy going at Fontwell in January, he then finished runner-up in a Listed contest at Huntingdon before well beaten in Grade 1 company at Cheltenham and Aintree. Kuilsriver is the obvious danger though he'll need to jump better than he did when runner-up to Medinas at Fontwell last time. The remaining pair have shown nothing and will need mishaps to the principals if they are to take a hand.
