Verdict

OAK VINTAGE was winning for the third time this season when successful last time out and he can defy a 6lb rise in the weights to claim this competitive looking handicap chase. The selection has run well on heavy ground in the past and can get the better of top weight Caraline who can claim second under amateur rider Becky Smith. Promising amateur rider Bruce Lynn is taken to finish third on Bobbie's Diamond who drops in trip today having disappointed over further last time out.
  1. Oak Vintage
  2. Caraline
  3. Bobbie's Diamond
