Mick Quinn has his string in good form at present and Angus Newz can provide him with another winner; Hoh Hoh Hoh and Coconut Moon rate as the main dangers. Angus Newz could not be in better form, and scouser Quinn would love to win this contest at a track that he loves. She goes on the ground and she has the plum draw so she makes plenty of appeal. Coconut Moon is a Chester specialist and he should run his race, but he will need some luck to get his head in front from stall seven. Hoh Hoh Hoh won here back in June and he has also won with cut in the ground so he has to be respected; he has the benefit of a good draw. Henry Candy's runners are going well at present so the in-form Oldjoesaid is another worth of a mention, but for the winner we will stick with Angus Newz.
