        In depth

        Verdict

        Alan King's Bob Back gelding Bakbenscher and the Phillip Hobbs-trained Tago Mago are both interesting newcomers in the concluding bumper but Or d'Oudairies has shown a decent level of form and is taken to open his account. John Quinn's gelding showed promise on his Wetherby debut and again at Uttoxeter when last seen in January and a chance is taken that he may be fit enough on his return to open his account. Grumpy Bee would have claims given that Richard Phillips has his team in better form now, while Elegant Boy is probably better than he showed on his Kelso debut. Or d'Oudairies is the clear form pick though and he is preferred.
