Sporting Press made a winning chasing debut at Musselburgh (2m4f) and could see that form franked by the runner-up King Golan in the previous race. His chance is an obvious one with 7lb claimer Billy Garritty taking over in the saddle and negating the subsequent 4lb rise (and more). Recent Catterick winner Halcyon Days is as tough as an old boot, and he finished second to Charlie Snow Angel in this race in 2018. However, on the negative side he does have a career high mark to defy. Therefore, a tentative value-based alternative is the feasibly treated top-weight OAK VINTAGE, who was a two-time good ground C&D winner for previous trainer Ann Hamilton.
