Verdict
Martello Tower won this for Mags Mullins two years ago and she's represented by Lake View Lad so he's one to keep an eye on. Jamie Codd's booking for M M D Sizer catches the eye and he has more of a Flat pedigree than most of these. Arabic Scientist has the best Flat pedigree of all of these being by Pivotal out of a winning miler so he's one to note though it's difficult to get away from the two winning point-to-pointers in the line-up. NAMBOUR was a comfortable winner at Dromahane in December and, now with the champion trainer, he's taken to make a successful debut under Rules. Everyday Everyhour is in the same ownership and he is obviously well regarded as he started long odds-on for his debut at Lemonfield in March though he eventually only scrambled home.
