Verdict

A prolific course winner, Good Luck Charm found the heavy going against him at Epsom and could be in this mix today. Baltic Prince is upped in class and raised 6lb after scoring here last month while Spinnaka finally won a maiden race when successful at Chepstow and Mister Freeze scored over 6f at Southwell recently. Black Caesar is another course regular that could go well but WAHAAB escapes a penalty for winning an apprentices’ race at Leicester by over three lengths and Sophie Leech’s charge gets the vote on that basis.
