Winklevi never troubled the winner when second over a longer trip here while Hashtagmetoo has placed in all three starts since scoring at Bath in September. Bobba Tee had been threatening to win before running below par at Newcastle while KING CHARLES has an absence to overcome. But the latter has the most scope of these and can race off lower mark than when successful at Newcastle if an apprentice’s allowance is taken into account.
