In depth
Verdict
Charlieadams has shown improved form since been switched to professional hands and he is taken to score despite rocketing up the weights he won with more in hand than the official margin suggests last time and he should get his four timer here. Tuska Ridge was second behind Red Hot Indian last time out but that form has been let down badly since. Danteco has been running well over hurdles and fences of late and will go on the ground and if this hard puller gets an easy lead he will be a danger to all. Jokers Charm would also have a chance on his best form but he has failed to sparkle in two runs this season. It's All A Chance could also go well as he is better handicapped over fences than hurdles.
