This is a weak affair and there's a good case to be made for LUCKELLO who, although disappointing over hurdles, has won between the flags twice since last seen under Rules and could be well treated now chasing. Last year's winner Kingsmill Gin is a danger and there's every chance Minella Voucher will bounce back to form.
