A low-grade contest which will make only limited appeal to punters. Without being a necessarily confident shout, the most likely winner would appear to be Sandy Forster's veteran CHARLIE SNOW ANGEL. He has plenty of previous Kelso form on his CV, and found only Fly Rory Fly stronger over C&D recently. If electing to play, and purely as a precaution, it's worth waiting to check that he elects to jump off before getting involved. Others with possible claims include Ueueteotl and The Road Home.
