        Verdict

        After seconds at Stratford and Cartmel, connections of Tango Echo Charlie will be hoping the six-year-old can make it third-time lucky today. But COLLEGE OAK appeared to have stronger form last season when second at Ffos Las and fourth at Wetherby. He tackles good going for the first time over hurdles and will suited by the step up in distance. Le Grand Rocher has had wind surgery and changed stables since last seen in November so is probably best watched today, though is still preferred to Aughnacurra King.
