Verdict

Control Man is the one we like here and he is taken to score at the main expense of Alexanderthegreat and Eva So Charming. The selection unseated his rider last time out at Kempton but he had previously been in fantastic and providing he can get a clear round here then he should take the world of beating. Alexanderthegreat won well on his chasing bow before falling last time out. He has no trip or ground worries here and should go well. Eva So Charming is a game and consistent sort who rarely runs a bad race, but he does have a tendency to find at least one too good and that may be the case again here. Gingerbread House is in good form and is another to consider, but for the winner we return to Control Man.
