Charlie Cool is 7lb higher than his C&D win earlier this month when Kiwi Bay, who won this last year, was four lengths back in second. Jonny Lesters Hair has been hit with a 9lb rise for his recent victory over 1m2f at Ripon, while Just Bond was in good form in the first half of the season but has lost his way of late. The in-form Just The Tonic takes a big step up in class and MULLINS WAY makes more appeal. He never figured on soft ground last time, but overcame trouble in-running to beat today's rival File And Paint at this track in July and is given another chance back on a fast surface.
