Dan Skelton holds a strong hand with two of his three representatives, namely WEST BALBOA and Gwennie May Boy, boasting good credentials. The former doesn't look badly treated off a mark 6 lb higher compared to when winning this in good style last year and her latest effort at Kempton was encouraging. Gwennie May Boy looked good at Uttoxeter and is clear second choice despite going up 9 lb, while Black Bamboo makes serious each-way appeal. Monmiral and Cuthbert Dibble are others to consider.
