Verdict
There seems no reason why Monsieur Cadou, who won at Hereford last season and was second to the well-backed Rossmore Lad on his reappearance at Chepstow, shouldn't be in the firing-line while River Dragon had an outing on the Flat two weeks ago. Pancake is throw in on his old form and would be of interest if he attracted market support on his first start for Alex Hales, but preference is for MAURICETHEATHLETE. Nick Slatter rode Martin Keighley's eight-year-old into second place at Market Rasen last weekend and again takes off 7lb here - the longer trip will suit.
