Plenty in with a squeak but the vote goes to CHARLIE’S CHOICE, who notched his third success of the year at Southwell recently and David Simcock’s 4-y-o remains firmly of interest on the back of a 5lb rise. Heading up the dangers is Tortured Soul, who confirmed his return to form when runner-up at Kempton earlier this month, with Graze On Phoenix and Arazzo taken to fight out third.

WEIGHTWATCHER: AUTUMN ANGEL won off a handicap mark of 62, her rating is now down 14lb to 48. LONGEST TRAVELLER: BERNIE THE BEAR trained by Miss L Perratt, East Kilbride, 275 miles.
AUTUMN ANGEL went down fighting when beaten 3/4-length by Mashaan over 7f here on Boxing Day and, with this drop back in trip unlikely to be an issue, the scales may well tilt in her favour this time, given that she meets the winner on 5lb better terms. Savalas was successful over C&D on his latest start and he is third choice ahead of another C&D scorer in Bernie The Bear

WEIGHTWATCHER: COACHELLO won off a handicap mark of 104, his rating is now down 12lb to 92. LONGEST TRAVELLER: AIRMAN trained by R Fahey, Malton, 145 miles.
COACHELLO is of strong interest returned to the all-weather on an appealing mark and he shades preference ahead of Dyrholaey, who has been absent since finishing down the field in a Royal Ascot handicap in June but he was 3-3 (all on the all-weather) prior to that and probably remains with potential. It will be interesting to see how Filly One, who was unbeaten in two starts as a juvenile, gets on now handicapping following a 12-month absence.
