It's all about previous C&D winners in this Conditional Jockeys Handicap Chase, with Civil Unrest, VODKA WELLS and Gin Cobbler well known for strutting their stuff at this Northumberland venue. The handicapper is slowly getting to grips with the former (although he's obviously much respected given his solid recent form), whilst the last named could have peaked earlier than normal in 2017. Therefore, the Rebecca Menzies trained seven-year-old gets the nod in the hope that he can gain amends for a race that to all intents and purposes was his to lose at Sedgefield recently.
