PLAY SMARTER

LERMOOS LEGEND again left the impression that his turn is near when chasing home the in-form Blueberry Wine at Aintree and he is taken to deservedly get his head back in front. It’s likely that the selection will have most to fear from Captain Ivan, who is greatly respected despite going up 8lb for his recent Southwell success Sao isn’t the most reliable nowadays but he’s certainly capable of a bold show off this sort of mark.

PLAY SMARTER

BALLYKEEL has a career-high mark to overcome but still looks the way to go on the back of his idling C&D success Course-winner Presentandcounting rates much the biggest threat, with Saint Arvans appealing as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.
