Verdict
Robin Des People is having his first run under Rules since finishing third over 2m here in August but can’t be ignored. Royal Magic could be interesting if the rains arrive and Miss Yeats was back to form when fourth at Kempton. King Cnut probably ran better than expected when third at Exeter so goes on the short-list but DANBORU still held every chance when falling at the last at Bangor in March and compensation could await here with a clear round.
