Dinsdale isn’t very big but jumped soundly when making a winning start over fences at Worcester, though his penalty means he has to carry a welter burden here. PEPPAY LE PUGH also carries 7lb extra but still gets 19lb from the top weight having won in a canter when odds-on at Stratford – he’ll be hard to beat here. Gris De Pron and Irish raider Redwood Boy look the pick of the remainder as Old Salt turned in a shocker here having won earlier at Market Rasen.
