Verdict
ARABIC CHARM completed a double over 7f with last week’s victory at Brighton. This shorter trip shouldn’t prove too much of an inconvenience having made all on both occasions and the Godolphin filly can notch up a hat-trick. Ice Station Zebra ended last year with a victory at Southwell but is 7lb higher on her reappearance. Silent Witness finished second at Wolverhampton last time but The Blue Bower is preferred in this higher grade.
