PANDION POWER showed improved form on his final 3 starts last season, making another bold bid from the front when finishing third at Galway in his hat-trick bid, so he is taken to resume winning ways on his return. He can see off the challenge of Goldrush Kid, who is respected back on the level, with Martinelli completing the shortlist.

    Without a win last season but has been falling in the weights as a result. After 5 months off, shaped as if needing the run when thirteenth of 26 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft, 20/1) in November, though she's been absent again since.
