A competitive handicap chase here but the TEAMtalk selection is Dunster Castle. The gelding from the Philip Hobbs yard was a fair third behind Derringtoher Yank on his debut this season, he is proven on the ground and he will strip a lot fitter today. Spinofski rates the main danger despite top weight. He was a good second behind Restless Wind at Kempton on his first run of the season, and this faster ground should help. Navarone was a good second behind Merchants Friend last time out and that form ha since been franked. Lord North would have a chance on his best form but he was pulled up last time out and his stable is still under a bit of cloud. Zaffaranni could also go well but she was let down by her jumping last time. Of the others Favoured Option could go well off what looks a lenient mark.
