Verdict
CARPINCHO was sent off favourite for his chasing debut at Chepstow, but finished a well beaten fifth. He'll have come on for the outing and may make a better fist of the jumping with that experience under his belt. Chariot Charger has been placed in four of his five starts over fences, but hasn't raced since 2010, while Nine De Sivola has now raced 19 times over the larger obstacles without success. Railway Dillon, Universal Soldier and Wistow are others to consider facing fences for the first time.
