Allee Bleue was second over this trip at Huntingdon after winning easily at Leicester but he’s gone up another 3lb. Aengus steps up a couple of grades in search of a hat-trick and has a 10lb higher mark to defy but BYRON FLYER is an interesting runner. He’s been going really well on the all-weather since finishing a close-up fourth at Aintree in December and may still be on a decent mark. Fortunate George rarely runs a bad race and Emma Lavelle’s charge seems sure to be involved in the finish - he is much better of at the weights than when beaten by Kk Lexion at Wincanton in January. De Vous A Moi beat a dual winner at Newcastle last time but the handicapper has taken no chances and Dashing Oscar has been beaten in lesser company of late. Sky Khan is best watched returning from a break.
