Verdict

The penny seems to be dropping with SHAMAN DU BERLAIS, who is still open to improvement and can be a force to reckoned with if he settles better now he races over a longer trip. Uno Mas is in good form and may be up to shrugging off his 5lb rise for readily winning at Catterick last time; he is feared along with Ratfacemcdougall, who completes the shortlist as potential improvers.
