Wee Forbees has the better of Morenito based on their most recent run at Bangor but we side with SILVER DOLLARS who has winning handicap chase form already this year. The selection has performed poorly since being victorious at Musselburgh but it is interesting that connections try him at a reduced trip and given the relatively weak form on offer from the competitors in this field we side with the David Arbuthnot trained gelding here. Wee Forbees was fourteen lengths behind Neutrino on his last appearance but this was considerably closer than Morenito who was a long way further back. He has a reasonable chase record and he could compete for the major honours. On the basis of that most recent effort we swerve Morenito who doesn't appear to have the measure of Wee Forbees. The Randy Bishop could challenge given that the only time he has been seen at this course he picked up a victory. In this contest we cautiously side with Silver Dollars to grab the win.
