Verdict
Having returned to form with a close-up second over an extended 2m here, Tuba must enter calculations. However, he has yet to prove as effective over this trip and he may have to play second fiddle once more, with BILLY BATHGATE edging the vote. The veteran arrives on the back of a respectable third at Newcastle and a similar performance might prove sufficient. The returning Fashionelle is a feasible alternative.
Expert View Verdict
HAVACHOC has been holding his form well and not done much wrong of late off a new higher mark following three consecutive wins to begin 2026. Now eased 1lb and returning to a course where he's been successful in the past, he seems sure to go well. Fashionelle has found some form of late and again ran well dropped to this rip last time. She ideally wants further but that shouldn't prevent another solid effort here off what remains a competitive mark. Billy Bathgate tends to give his running provided he settles, which isn't always the case admittedly, and he comes in as third choice.
