Race preview
Thunder In Milan has questions to answer after an inauspicious start to his chasing career at Ayr 42 days ago. MASKED CRUSADER failed to justify favouritism on his first attempt over fences at Catterick, but compensation could await with that run under his belt and this sharper test could suit. Diamond State rates the chief threat after finishing third over today's C&D in November, although Curious Times shouldn't be written off now trying his hand at this new discipline.
