Race preview
Big Time Maybe represents a handler that does well here but he might not necessarily get his ground and was disappointing last time when a heavily supported favourite. Charnock Richard has shown some promising signs in his last two starts, while Miss Puddles has a perfect draw for Richard Fahey. BURIDAN has to carry a penalty but did well to score on debut at Windsor last month and this drop in trip coupled with first-time blinkers looks ideal.
