Go Charlie ran his best race to date here recently when hunting up Clear Focus in low-grade handicap company but is unlikely to have the ammunition to repel a pair of progressive sorts. Good to see Marcus Tregoning with a couple of winners of late and FYRECRACKER can boost the tally further, having shaped with distinct promise when only beaten by the useful Outlawed at Salisbury over 7f. The third that day, Certificate, has franked the form with a subsequent Windsor victory, achieved in comfortable fashion. Lady Sparkler, whose seasonal reappearance behind Amber Isle and Makhfar also reads well with the second having scored at Doncaster on Saturday evening, is a strong threat in receipt of the 5lb sex allowance but the waters are muddied somewhat in that she's currently entered to perform at Windsor last night.
