Salto Chisco is proving hard to win with at present while Malangen would benefit from some leniency by the handicapper, despite having found only one too good in his last two starts. CIVIL UNREST was let down by his jumping last time at Southwell but James Ewart’s veteran is reunited with Brian Hughes, who was on board when the 13-year-old won off a pound lower mark at Hexham in May, so gets another chance.
