ARTISTIC CHARM made a very promising start behind hot favourite Lamar at Newmarket, only going down by a neck. Any improvement on that effort will make David Simcock's filly tough to beat here. Valen looks the danger after a fair fifth on debut at Goodwood. The fourth has won since and the sixth was just beaten at Chepstow last week so the form is working out well. Alfaayza and Baars Causeway have also shown signs of ability while a market check is advised on Roger Charlton's newcomer Tides Reach, who is a half-sister to a 6f winner.
