The eye is immediately drawn to Vauban here with aspirations of him possibly going for the Melbourne Cup in time but there is no juice in his price and I’m happy to oppose. I really like RULING DYNASTY for the boys in blue. This son of Night Of Thunder won with any amount in hand at Haydock last time and while he is being chucked in at the deep end here he will clearly relish this trip and he could improve enough to be a serious threat. He seems overpriced and looks worth chancing. Vauban is still the danger as on his hurdle mark he is very well-in but saying that Saldier was beat in this a couple of years ago so they can get beat. Of the rest Postileo defied a mammoth absence to make a winning return at Hamilton and as long as he doesn’t bounce back up in trip he could be another one to note.
