Race preview
Preference is for COLONEL HARRY, who ran on into second over 2m in the Henry VIII at Sandown in December. He is expected to progress now upped in trip and he might take some stopping. Trelawne will need more upped in grade but he remains open to further improvement and should not be underestimated, while Chasing Fire, who unseated at the first last time out, appeals most of the remainder.
