Verdict
Brunel Charm was placed again when second at Lingfield and Florence Street has gone close the last twice now. Le Reveur found only one too good at Kempton last time while both Poet's Eye and El Camino won their penultimate starts on the all-weather. But a chance is taken on MCCANN THE MAN in an open contest as he has more scope than the rest after posting his best effort so far when fourth at Kempton recently.
