In a first-time tongue tie, MY GIFT TO YOU proved a different proposition on his stable/handicap debut when getting off the mark in good style at Southwell 2 days ago, so he can score again if making the quick turnaround. Nadim arrives bidding for a hat-trick and is the main danger, with Painless Potter completing the shortlist

CHAMP ROYAL is well treated on his Irish form and his latest fifth at this course was the best form he’s shown for his current stable, so he gets the tentative vote in a race that lacks depth. In-form Sylvies Dance is a threat and Alberic is of interest back over hurdles.
