Gavin Cromwell wastes no time bringing out TOP OF THE CHARTS (NAP) after he scored at Down Royal last week and, though carrying a 5lb penalty, he's been raised 10lb by the handicapper so looks well in. The stable also run Global Racing, a comfortable winner at Limerick in July but now 13lb higher. Alohamora bounced back to form with a cracking effort when beaten a nose at Bellewstown and would be an obvious threat with a repeat while Generator City didn't take to fences last time after staying on strongly over 2m4f in a Tramore novices' hurdle. Whereyounow completed a double in the spring and also found 2m4f too short at Tramore last time.
