Celtic Intrigue has shown little this season but it was at this stage last year that the course and distance winner rattled up a hat-trick so check if there's any money around for him, although he does remain higher than his last winning mark. Patsys Castle is still seeking the level of quality displayed over hurdles in 2014 and will surely prove better suited to these quicker conditions than those in which he floundered at Uttoxeter last time. Free Of Charge was a fair second here latest but PRESENT ACCEPTED has impressed in the manner of his victories the last twice, goes well for Robert Dunne and remains on an acceptable mark despite the latest punishment from the assessor.
