AIRE VALLEY LAD didn’t look an easy ride when scoring over course and distance earlier this month but should again beat fourth Trevelyn's Corn and is probably the one to be on. Concrete King and Get Prepared lack a recent run but both have won between the flags so probably have a future over fences. Espoir Moriviere is 8lb better off than when beaten three lengths by Sir Apollo at Sedgefield and appears to have the beating of Onestepatatime on that run. Fever Roque may improve for the step up in trip but Jean Genie is now 0-24.
