Nottingham

Papa Don't Preach was a creditable third when favourite here last month and he's respected along with Westgate Warrior, who looks well handicapped on his front-running win over C&D last autumn. Komorkis and Albegone are also in the mix, while handicap newcomer Donald needs a close look on his return. However, Paul Midgley has won this race in the last two years and he may be able to strike again with HERAKLES, who was a close second at Newcastle last month and is a big player if he can repeat that form.[David Moon]
