Verdict

Aru Cha Cha has never won in 26 starts and stepping up to this trip could be the final throw of the dice. My Tringaling didn't run badly over the track and trip in November before finding 1m4f too far at Kempton but this is a rematch of the race won by Elle Rebelle over the course and distance a couple of weeks ago but possibly with a different result. Mark Brisbourne's charge was a narrow winner over Officer In Command with GOODWOOD MOONLIGHT close up in third but the latter was squeezed for room inside the last furlong and is entitled to reverse the form with a better run.
