A very tricky finale featuring several in-form runners. Broad Appeal was progressive last year and improved again to make a winning reappearance at Windsor. Golden Wolf is still well treated despite a 4lb rise for scoring at Newmarket but Peace Prevails has gone up 6lb for winning at HQ. Rudy Lewis was successful at Wolverhampton last month but has yet to prove as effective on Turf. With the retirement of Peter Hedger, C’EST NO MOUR is now in the care of Simon Hodgson. The seven-year-old is now a pound lower than when winning at Epsom last August and he made a satisfactory return at Windsor. Uther Pendragon got back to winning ways at Bath but he’s best over 1m2f.
