Newcastle third Tutchec has every chance of reversing earlier Carlisle running with Oil Burner on 8lb better terms and is one for the short-list but PENSNETT BAY won by a wide-margin at Uttoxeter last month and has travelled up from Lambourn for this. A repeat performance should see him in the firing-line but Market Rasen winner Dont Tell Sailor has more to do here and Runswick Relax hasn't really sparkled over fences so far while it seems like a long time since Highrate won here in November.
