Race Tip

CORRIGEEN ROCK (1) was a smart runner-up in this event last year before winning next time at this venue. Below par on return at Ascot but improvement is expected returning here. Makes plenty of appeal. BEAU BALKO (3) holds a consistent profile including a 11L second in a 2m4f handicap chase a fortnight ago at Newbury. Possibilities. BREIZH RIVER (2) found success narrowly over 2m1f at Kelso before a G2 Novice Chase fifth at Cheltenham in November. Likely player. GOLD DES BOIS (6) won a 2m1f handicap chase by a nose at Kelso. Consider upped in grade.
