Race preview
Pepys' winning run came to an abrupt end at Redcar last time but the drop back a furlong in trip here could see him get closer, while The Right Choice has hinted that the step up to this distance could unlock further improvement. JACOB BLACK gets the vote, though, as Keith Dalgleish's charge has shown a real liking for this track in recent months, winning over a mile and taking second over C&D two starts ago. Drawn in the car park at Chester last time, he can easily be forgiven that effort.
