Verdict
Beau Lake finally got his head in front over hurdles when beating Super Directa in a three horse race over C&D last time, but he's facing a different test in this bigger field. Wheres Johnny won over track and trip last month but has been campaigned over further since and has plenty to find with SEBASTIANO on their recent running at Fontwell. Gary Moore's charge has been threatening a return to winning ways and today could be his day. Rushwee was below par last time but is better judged on his earlier win at Wetherby.
