Verdict

Carapuce, Bob The Piler and Another Dude look the three to concentrate on in this beginners chase and the vote goes to Carapuce. The selection was a fair third behind Vandas Choice last time out over a longer trip he giving the impression he would be suited by the drop in trip. He has conditions to suit and will be hard to beat. Bob The Piler rates the main danger on his latest third behind Provocative as he is sure to have come on for the run but that fiorm has since been let down and he is passed over on this occasion. Another Dude is also worthy of respect but he took a heavy fall last time out so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Oliverjohn is from a yard in form but has disappointed of late and needs to improve while Zamat may need the run after a long absence and for the winner we return to Carapuce.
