Wins last time out will certainly tempt punters into supporting both Takes Tutu and Dark Charm, but Jubilee Street has been going well and could be the answer to this decent opener. The selection receives weight from the other 10 runners here, has a good draw, and looks likely to be suited by the track, where front runners are notoriously hard to peg back. Okay, so stamina will be tested to the limit, but on this ground speed can win the day and he can score. Takes Tutu took a fast ground handicap at Redcar last time, and his yard continues in form, but a 6lb penalty will make this much more difficult. Dark Charm has finished third in a Lincoln and showed a welcome return to form at Hamilton the other day. He is capable of going in off this mark, and provided he doesn't suffer for a poor draw, he can go very well again. Tim Easterby is another in cracking form and he runs Tough Love. The gelding caught a tartar last time in Top Dirham, but he can perhaps give the selection most to do here over a trip that suits. But Jubilee Street has plenty in his favour and gets the call.
