Verdict

A typically competitive race with Mythical Charm, Adobe and Archie Wright among the more obvious contenders and we will side with Mythical Charm. John Bridger's charge is not the most prolific of winners but she did manage to get her head infront at Lingfield on her most recent start. Her overall course form at Goodwood has been particularly credible with a couple of placed efforts over course and distance last year. Overnight rain should not inconvenience one bit. Adobe is now ten years of age but retains enthusiasm for the game. He comes here off the back of a solid run at Haydock and should be thereabouts here. Archie Wright has to be respected with Simon Walker booked. He is far from the stable star at Richard Hannon's but could go well if raced prominently tonight. Londoner is watched in the market for any clues. He was much better than this some time ago and can go well fresh. My Lilli was gambled last week on the artificial surfaces but has only had three starts on the turf. Adalar has dropped a couple of pounds in the weights but has bits and pieces of form that entitle him to consideration. He is interestingly tried in a first time visor. Of the remainder, Beau Marche is worth a look. Hailing from an in-form yard, he raced off a mark of 71 at the beginning of the season and is significantly lower than that now. The market may offer most clues but we will stick with Mythical Charm to repeat the winning habit.
