What Of It usually finds one too good but did get his head in front at Towcester in March when Kikos was well behind. HERECOMESTHETRUTH has finished second at Sandown and Ascot this year so should go well, despite a below-par run in a point-to-point last time, and he gets the vote as the rest were all well beaten on their latest outing. Cedrus Libani and Jayo were among that number but would have a chance on their old form.
