Verdict
Charminster represents a yard in flying form and can race off a 6lb lower mark back over timber while Dontpaytheferryman has been in winning form at Musselburgh this year and is only 3lb higher than his latest win. Tarn Hows has been raised 10lb for his recent victory at Stratford but could still get involved while the likes of Right Stuff and Dormouse are others to consider. However, TESHALI has very close on his last couple of starts in higher grade handicaps, including when runner-up at Cheltenham last month, and he can take advantage of today's drop in class and get his head back in front.
