Good runner-up at 20-1 when little between him and Preemptive Strike (fourth) two months ago; multiple course winner; now competes off a higher mark; rates a likely contender despite being up in class and his recent effort was encouraging.

Recent form has a decent look to it; can be a player at this level; fair effort when beaten just over 3l, finishing fourth of nine (just behind Preemptive Strike) last month.

Has chalked up two wins from his last five; won by 1½l over 5f at Scottsville (handicap) last month; now off a higher mark; hard to dismiss despite this step up in class and he has a good draw.

Sound effort when 14-1 runner-up over 5f here (handicap) three weeks ago; a rise in the ratings to contend with; can give it a good shot.

Not beaten that far in fifth (3½l) last month; record suggests he is usually one to take on for win purposes so looks risky.

Verdict

This has the look of a wide-open race but PROFESSOR LUPIN can prevail. He appeals most from the plum draw and has won once over this C&D. C&D winner Preemptive Strike is respected.
