Seeyaaj gets the vote over Tarboush in what looks to be a two-horse race on paper. Seeyaaj improved out of all recognition when hacking up over the course and distance last week, and a small rise is unlikely to stop him here. A winner on the Flat for Alec Stewart last year, he can go on to more success on the summer ground. His main rival Tarboush has to concede three pounds and may be found wanting with his come from behind tactics. Nevertheless, he can give the selection most to do before going novice chasing, with Brave Dane and Stolen Song both having something to find. Stick with Tony McCoy and Seeyaaj and you will not go far wrong.
