Verdict
Army Of Stars and EL DECECY both had the misfortune of coming up against the progressive Steed on their latest starts. There wouldn't be much between them if this was a handicap, but the latter is favoured at the weights here and can take advantage. John Balding's charge is also weighted to reverse earlier form with Elusive Warrior, who beat him over C&D back in October, but is 13lb worse off today. It's difficult to make a case for the remaining quartet who look up against it on these terms.
