Verdict
Oliver Greenall had a good chance in the first division of this low-grade handicap and CAWTHORNE could give the stable a double having reverted to hurdles with a victory at Market Rasen, though he has been raised 7lb. Chief Brody has a poor strike-rate but can’t get much lower in the weights. Rowley Park and Volturnus will probably need this but Mystic Court and Global Wonder hinted at a revival last time and Alfie's Angel might be improving.
