Ascot
Sat 23rd Nov

Formscan  - It's been a while since Dashel Drasher's last spin over fences, but he's seldom been out of the first three in this discipline and is respected in receipt of 6lb from PIC D'ORHY, although Paul Nicholls' nine-year-old remains the one to beat. A bloodless winner of this contest 12 months ago, he later added the Ascot Chase to his CV before being pulled up in the Melling at Aintree. Wind surgery might have done him the world of good and he receives a confident vote. Le Patron looks best placed to chase the pair home.
