Verdict

Chesterfield has been in fine form and is respected despite his rise in the weights, while Optimus Prime and Ashkoul are feared given the form of their stable. However, such was the authority with which JOHN CONSTABLE won this last year that it may be folly to desert him despite his hike in the weights. He was banging his head against the likes of Buveur D'Air and My Tent Or Yours last season and this return to handicap company and decent ground could make him hard to beat. Forth Bridge, Act Of Valour and William H Bonney also enter calculations.
  1. John Constable
  2. Chesterfield
  3. Optimus Prime
