‘If he has a clear round he should be firmly involved at the finish’

Rebecca Menzies has done a fine job with Sao and can be rewarded with a big run from the seven-year-old at the festival. Formerly with Paul Nicholls, Menzies and jockey Nathan Moscrop have found the key to this headstrong half-brother to Frodon, and he could still be ahead of the handicapper. 2019 runner-up Bun Doran has dropped to a very dangerous mark, while Amoola Gold has had an admirably consistent campaign.
