    Verdict

    Charlie Tango, Molinia and Treetops Hotel look the three to concentrate on in this open handicap and the vote goes to Molinia. The selection has been in the form of his life of late and was a game winner last time out when defeating Tokawanna. He again has conditions to suit and from a good draw he will be hard to beat. Charlie Tango rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind La Puce but he just gave the impression he was in the handicappers grip and for that reason he is opposed. Treetops Hotel is another worthy of respect as he was a fair fourth behind Aswan last time out. The drop in trip looks sure to suit and he will not be far away. Sorbiesharry would have a chance on his best form but he is best when coming off a strong pace and he is not sure to get that here. Of the remainder Tosco is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Molinia.
