Charming Zen is probably best watched after a break and switch of stables while Canyon City failed in his hat-trick bid at Kempton and has gone up another 2lb since. GOLDEN JEFFREY can follow up his Musselburgh victory now that he’s got his head back in front as he’s still nicely treated. Card Game has slipped to a more appealing mark but she’s not been firing and Kk Lexion, though fairly consistent, will likely find at least one too good again.
