Verdict
Both Midnight Feast and Sluggsy Morant have the form over 6f to figure but have yet to prove as effective over today's trip, while it was disappointing to see the lightly-raced Above Standard take a step backwards at Sandown last time. Silverware and Isingy Red have failed to improve on their earlier victories so, in a wide-open contest, a chance is taken on CHARLES FOSTERKANE. He should settle better today after taking a keen hold on his first two starts of the season and, if doing so, John Best's charge can add to November's victory over today's trip at Wolverhampton. Cheylesmore is another with claims but was engaged to run at Brighton yesterday.
