Race preview
Galop De Chasse found only an unexposed chaser too strong when filling the runner-up spot at Wincanton but though he's worthy of consideration eased 1lb in the handicap, CORNERSTONE LAD edges the vote. Micky Hammond's stable stalwart was far from disgraced in a 0-135 contest at Haydock last time out and from 8lb below his last winning mark and in slightly calmer waters, he can defy top weight. The King Of May is another to consider.
