Pulled-up in heavy ground last time, Torero was placed over 2m here earlier. Amazing D'Azy is steadily improving and can get involved while Fountains Mary won over a longer trip on fast ground in December and can be given a chance on that form. Laughton Park is a course and distance winner but may need some cut to show his best and the latter comment also applies to Ussee. COUP DE GRACE was a losing favourite over track and trip last time but was beaten only a two lengths by Henryville and is fancied to make amends in what looks a less competitive contest.
