Not a race to be risking the Christmas present fund on with some very moderate performers lining-up and it might just be worth siding with LE CAPRICIEUX. Gary Moore's gelding was entitled to need his recent return run and although he is unproven on the ground, he is open to improvement and the 10lb claimed off his back could prove invaluable. Top weight Hollywood All Star is respected from this mark, while Thundering Home is another to consider and Cafe Au Lait would be interesting if backed on his first run for Dan Skelton.
