Race preview
PERTEMPS gets a confident vote here for Olly Murphy and Sean Bowen. His best effort to date came in the mud at Uttoxeter two starts ago and a replication might be good enough, not least because the return to further should suit. Big Cadillac has yet to confirm the promise of his bumper win but will at least find this easier than the Grade 2 he contested at Cheltenham in December. Keep an eye on Escort'kheops too.
