Verdict

Tanqeeb has been raised 3lb after winning over 7f at Wolverhampton while Velvet Vision made a winning start for new connections when scoring at Southwell last month. But CHANNEL PACKET (NAP) escapes a penalty for winning an apprentices’ race under today’s rider at Newcastle last week and can reverse earlier running here on better terms with Weloof. The latter has finished runner-up the last twice now and has the beating of Bullington Boy while J'ouvert can also be given a chance on a recent third over track and trip.
