A hugely competitive event to start the meeting and many come here with genuine chances. Irish raider Ice Cold Soul has shot up the weights but looks very progressive and seems sure to be in the mix, a comment that applies to last year's fourth SKY KHAN who appears to have been laid out for a repeat bid and shaped nicely on his most recent start. Hawk High is another with claims back on this sharp track, as have Rather Be, Mad Jack Mytton, and Dream Berry. Paul Nicholls' Zubayr is another to catch the eye in a cracking contest.
