I can see MORNING SPIRIT being popular here. I still thought he was going well when coming down 5 out here last time and with first-time cheekpieces coupled with this step up to a marathon trip we could see him at his best. He still has plenty of potential over fences and this is just his fourth attempt. He found all bar De Young Warrior too good on penultimate start and a run like that could see him in the winner's enclosure on Tuesday afternoon. Equus Dreamer was back on track chasing home Bavington Bob at Carlisle. If he builds on that he looks the most likely danger to the selection. Moroder is obviously thriving but a further 6lb may well find him out. Classic Ben was back to something like his best when runner-up over track and trip last time so also has to enter calculations but will need to be at his best to land a blow.
