In depth
Verdict
PURE CHARMER was clear of the remainder when runner-up on her debut at Beverley and, granted normal improvement, she should go one better here unless the Mukhadram colt Robjon, who is a half-brother to a number of winners, proves above average. Silver Kitten has travelled down from Middleham but she was a relatively cheap purchase.
