In depth
Verdict
Monbonami gets the confident vote in the finale with Hombre the main danger and Tiger Frog the other worthy of serious consideration. The selection will be a difficult to beat if he jumps well as he has bags of stamina and has been in good heart of late. His jumping at times can let him down but if he is in the mood he is hard to oppose. Hombre is respected as the main danger as he is on a handy mark at present and is a course and distance winner. He ran well last time behind Athnowen at Uttoxeter, and is sure to come on for that run, his first of the season. Tiger Frog was not far away when third behind Deja Vu at Musselburgh last time and a reproduction of that effort will see him go close. Of the remainder, Cardinal Mark is from a shrewd yard and could go well, but we are happy to stick with Monbonami who gets the confident recommendation.
