Verdict
LORD RAPSCALLION is a regular in better races than this and arguably should have won back from a short break at Chelmsford last week. He looks too well weighted to ignore so gets the nod in favour of King of Ithaca, who is building up a good record over C&D and last-time-out winner Eligible.
