Verdict

CHARLIES MATE continued his good progress with a cosy two length success at Kempton last time. He s upped a further 7lb but is still preferred to Breakheart, who looks more favourably weighted than the selection but is hard to catch right. Tommy s Secret finished ahead of Al s Memory at Lingfield recently but has won just the once since 2012 while Nouveau Foret failed to threaten the winner when runner up over track and trip three weeks ago. Lady Estella has won over 7f and is only 3lb higher but has plenty to prove over this longer distance.
