Verdict

Plenty with chances in this big field but the presence of AP McCoy on board SIMON GRAY should have the desired effect. Three times a winner for Richard Hannon in 2009, he was having only his second start since when just touched off by Protaras at Navan last month and compensation awaits. Hawk Flight just can't get his head in front but is very consistent and it will be a surprise if he's not there at the finish though He's Our Man looks to have even better credentials having been caught close home by Carrig Millie at Navan and generally performing in better company. True Character and Ballyadam Approach are others with claims in an open race.
