Wee Charlie Castle has conditions to suit and can land this at the expense of Dark Planet and Irish Whisper. The selection is still a maiden after twenty starts and has become very frustrating to his connections as a result. He has though in the past put in some bold efforts and has the ability to win races. With this being such a weak contest it looks his best chance of success so is one to note. Dark Planet did win at Beverley earlier on in the season but has since been out of sorts. He is applied with blinkers for the first time to sharpen him up so any market moves should be noted. Irish Whisper ran a personal best last time at Folkestone when second to Joy In The Guild. It has taken time for the penny to finally drop but he is now one to note in the market. But for the winner we return to Wee Charlie Castle.
