LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): A Brittain (52 wins from 516 runners, 10%) runs ANOTHER ANGEL TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): A Brown (3 wins from 9 runners, 33%) runs EMBLA LONGEST TRAVELLER: BILLIAN trained by Mrs P Kirby, Richmond, 154 miles.

BILLIAN’s strike rate is hardy compelling but he is taken to deservedly get his head in front following a string of close calls Philip Kirby’s charge may have most to fear from Embla, who resumed winning ways in a similar event at Southwell recently. Another Angel is best of the rest. 1-2-3: 1.BILLIAN (IRE) 2.EMBLA 3.ANOTHER ANGEL (IRE)

An open-looking contest with the narrow vote in favour of GLORIOUS CHARMER. He’s been in good heart of late, again running with credit when third from the widest draw over 6f here 3 days ago and he looks sure to be in the mix once more. Fair And Square, for all he remains a maiden, is a threat along with Spanish Angel Amazing Amaya is also worth a second look
