Verdict
Most of these are running from out of the handicap and it could pay to stick with those at the top end of the weights. Decana scored over C&D in December when beating Carnac but a line through the latter suggests OMID can come out best in this. Nicky Vaughan's charge went close to following up last month's C&D victory back here last time and gets one of the better amateurs on board today. Kingaroo is another course regular but all six previous wins here have been over shorter trips while both William's Way and Mustajed are regulars in these events and also course winners.
