Verdict

Gordon Elliott seemingly holds all the aces here, with DEE CAPO and Maxxum both strong candidates. Preference is for the former who will find this company more palatable than the big-field handicap scenario he encountered at the Cheltenham Festival last month. Look To The West is the clear pick of the others.
