Verdict
Kayf Charmer is upped 9lb for winning at Ffos Las and Dalkadam has been raised 8lb for scoring over track and trip when beating AZA RUN a length. But that was the latter’s first outing since May and he’s fancied to turn the tables today and confirm running with Heavenly Promise and Mozo in the process. Cafe Au Lait only found one too good at Fontwell attempting to land a gamble while Norse Light and Akula are closely matched on earlier running at Leicester when the former just prevailed.
