Bronco Charlie gets the confident vote in the finale with Musical Capers and Ground Breaker put forward as the principle dangers. The selection won well for Aidan O'Brien on his debut in a bumper at Galway and he gets his first run today for Jonjo O'Neill. If he progresses from his debut success in Ireland then he should take plenty of beating here. Musical Capers has to be of interest as he is a rare runner in this sphere for Mick Channon. He is bound to know his job on his racecourse bow and this well-bred mare is one to note in the market. A watching brief on the market is also advised for the Mick Easterby newcomer Everytime, but he looks to be the stable second-string here and a bigger threat could come from Ground Breaker. He showed plenty of promise on his last start at Market Rasen when fifth behind Lockstockandbarrel and he may well be the one to give our selection the most to do. However, Bronco Charlie sets a fair standard here and is taken to score.
