Race preview
Hermann Clermont steps up markedly in trip after finishing second over 2m here last time and he warrants respect, while Castletown has been running consistently well and shouldn't be too far away either. However, FISTON DU MOU receives plenty of weight from all of his rivals and is the sole C&D scorer in the field, so he gets the nod. He built on that track-and-trip success when runner-up at Hexham last time and another bold bid beckons.
