Scorpo was a very easy winner over a longer trip at Sedgefield and this is a stiff track. He is only 6lb higher but PRINCE DUNDEE still looked a little green when winning over track and trip last month and, only six, should have plenty more to offer over fences. Shaiyzar appears to have reverted to type since a first chase win over the larger obstacles but Monsieur Bagot would have claims if on a going day and Apache Pilot is always worth a market check over these fences. So Satisfied seems best of flatter tracks.
