In depth
Verdict
Ghostly placed over a shorter trip at Wolverhampton last time while Thunder Gap also steps up in trip having slipped down the weights. But KING CHARLES is back on a winning mark and may be the one to side with having finished third over today’s distance at Wolverhampton last time. Easy Equation could go well back over today’s trip while Kiss My Face has won over hurdles since last seen on the Flat.
