This is tougher than the C&D handicap PEPE LE MOKO landed last time and he has a 9 lb higher mark to contend with, but he looks a chaser going places and is taken to strike again. Champagne Mystery is feared most on the back of his admirable effort in a big Cheltenham handicap, while Heltenham is also accorded respect and Golden Son is not one to write off just yet.
