Perfect Charm won a maiden handicap here on Monday but is likely to find this tougher under a penalty. Brandy Station is also a course and distance winner while Spot Lite was threatening prior to his latest run at Thirsk but is 5lb higher now. Toolatetodelegate and EDGED OUT were both beaten favourites last time and it’s Chris Mason’s veteran who is taken to recoup losses today given earlier seconds at Bath and Newbury came in a higher grade.
