Turban is two from two here so shouldn’t be ignored. Finnegan's Garden has also won twice at the track and a back-to-form Here I Am would be a danger to all but CYBALKO has found only one too good in his two runs over fences and can make it third-time lucky today. Maguire's Glen is slipping down the weights but he’s not really fired so far this campaign and Huntingdon third Le Capricieux has more scope.
