Verdict
SCOTTISH GLEN won over track and trip in July with a few of these behind. Lulu The Zulu and Kakatosi filled the places while Good Authority finished further back in sixth. Pat Chamings' charge has since gone close again at Lingfield and gets a speculative vote. Southwell winner Pretty Bubbles ran well at Sandown last time while Nameitwhatyoulike posted a much better effort at Thirsk recently having slipped down the weights. Charter is lightly-raced and should cope with a 4lb rise for winning at Newmarket and Rogue Wave is another to consider on the back of a second at Kempton.
