Ho Ho Hill,Tosawi and Party Games look the three to concentrate on in this handicap chase and the narrow vote is given to Tosawi. The selection was a fair second behind Terrible Tenant last time out and with the step back up in trip sure to suit he is taken to score. Ho Ho Hill rates the main danger on his latest third behind Panmure but his jumping remains a concern so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Party Games is sure to have his supporters but although he travels well in his races he find less than expected off the bridle and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Ideal Jack has dropped to a handy mark and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Tosawi.
