Verdict
Prince Noel is chasing the hat-trick here and we will take him on with Charlottebutterfly, who is preferred to Cadwell. Prince Noel arrives here in cracking form and holds strong claims, but he sometimes appears a little reluctant to go through with his effort and if this becomes a battle then he could be vulnerable. Charlottebutterfly could be the one to take advantage as she looks worth another chance after being a beaten favourite last time. That was a disappointing run but her previous form would give her every chance here and she looks the value bet in the race. Cadwell has proved a frustrating character so far but this step-up in trip should see him in a better light after a woeful effort over 5f here last time. Kirstys Lad won well last time but he looks worth taking on under a penalty, and we will stick with Charlottebutterfly who looks the one to beat.
