LIVE CONTI is the mount of Harry Skelton from brother Dan's quartet and is taken to leave his Ascot reappearance just before Christmas behind with a new headgear combination fitted now. His stablemate Knickerbockerglory went close in this race last year and could be primed for another bold bid. Hot Fuss, Melon and the thriving Saligo Bay are a few of many others to consider in this cracking handicap.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: A strongly contested lead could count against Wilful and Hot Fuss, who are expected to contest that lead: Such a hotly-contested pace as is on the cards here may be to the benefit of Go Dante and Bubble Dubi who can be expected to be ridden with restraint.
Individual Price Hint: Hot Fuss traded at 25% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on 3 of its last 5 starts.
