Verdict
Mister Teddy has only made the frame once in four starts under Rules and may find CAN MESTRET too strong. Gina Andrews rides the eight-year-old for her father Simon and he looked one to follow when winning by 15 lengths between the flags in December. Mister Chancer has had plenty of opportunities over the larger obstacles while En Suite returns from a break and has an inexperienced pilot on board.
