The vote goes to RUN OF LUCK, who finished nearer last than first on the all-weather last time but his form figures in turf handicaps read 2131 and he still has low mileage Curtiz is likely to emerge as the main danger, but if the first-time blinkers have a positive effect Gallant Lion could also be a threat.

Last time out winner HAVANA CLUB arrives on an upward trajectory and may be able to provide another winner for the in-form Adrian Wintle yard. Paragon hasn’t looked the most straightforward but could be worth another chance to capitalise on a lowly mark now fitted with headgear, while Dandy Khan bounced back to form when a shade unlucky at Windsor last time and should run well again.
