      Verdict

      GOOD LUCK CHARM (NAP) won this last year off a 5lb higher mark and was recording a fifth victory at the track when beating another course specialist, Black Caesar, here last month. Only 2lb higher, Gary Moore’s nine-year-old looks the one to beat again. Bbob Alula won by six lengths at Chepstow before running poorly at Wolverhampton but is now 12lb higher and Jason Watson gets off him to maintain his partnership with last month’s maiden winner Dream Catching. Real Estate and Kachumba would probably need to improve to get involved.
