CHARLIE SNOW ANGEL won over a shorter trip here last year and was just beaten over course and distance at the start of last month before finding Casual Cavalier too good at Newcastle. He is probably the one to beat in this but The Road Home looks a threat having been placed the last twice at Musselburgh and Lovely Schtuff has been lightly raced under Rules and is another with scope. Ueueteotl is more exposed but, along with the returning Billy Hicks, also warrants a mention.
