Charlie Appleby’s runner had every chance in the previous division and a quick double could be on the cards with OTTONIAN. The latter is related to the smart duo Empire Day and Counterpunch among others and may be good enough to make a winning start. Relevant is a half-sister to numerous winners and another newcomer to note while Kilowatt has the best piece of proven form with a second over 1m2f at Ripon last month. Sunrize was still beaten a long way when third here last time and Notnow Seamus debuts in this code after winning over hurdles earlier this month.
