PLAY SMARTER ARMATTIEKAN is now operating from a career-high mark but he brings easily the most solid recent form to the table, successful at Carlisle prior to a good second over this trip at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago. He’s fancied to go well again. Jarlath and Butterwick Brook on the back of a break can emerge next best, in that order.
