In depth

Verdict

Headgear, a tongue-tie and a step up in trip did the trick for Mac Tottie at Worcester 12 days ago but it’s a gamble that the stars will all be aligned again here, especially under a penalty. Champagne To Go has had plenty of chances over a variety of trips and looks an even riskier proposition but the four-year-old Roo Roo came good over track and trip earlier this month, though still needs to brush up his jumping. COURT DREAMING was no match for Champ in a maiden here last month but has a future over hurdles on that evidence and can only improve.
