Justified support on last month's chase debut; strong claims off 6lb higher.

Not fully exposed and any further rain would be to his advantage; contender.

Possibly high enough in the weights but respected back from a break nonetheless.

Two chase wins at 2m4f and 3m but out of sorts on last 3 starts and has plenty to prove
