Verdict

CELTIC CHARLIE has shown little over timber so far but arrives on the back of a couple of wins on the all-weather Flat. Pat Phelan will be hoping his charge can transfer that form to the obstacles and he gets another chance here as today's opposition are nothing special. Beau Fighter has claims if at his best but hasn't shown that for a while and has been well beaten on the level recently, while it's difficult to find anything to recommend the remainder with the likes of My Sister, The Lemonpie and Ajool all out of sorts.
