FormscanBy Michael Graham - Henry de Bromhead's MINELLA INDO landed this race on his seasonal reappearance last year and could repeat the feat. He was last seen finishing third in the Grand National at Aintree in April which was a very creditable effort. The admirable King George hero Hewick has tended to need his first run back, so may not be at his sharpest on his first outing since May albeit his rating of 167 entitles him to plenty of respect. Visionarian is far from advantaged by the weights, but is race fit after winning a three-runner Grade 2 at Gowran Park this month. Gordon Elliott's Minella Crooner and Conflated aren't out of it either.
