Verdict
HARLEM SOUL made a winning debut for Colin Tizzard’s yard when scoring over track and trip and can defy a penalty. That race has worked out well with the next three home all subsequently winning and the re-opposing Toronto finishing back in fifth. Carolines Charm can race off a lower mark back over hurdles but the remainder with experience are hard to recommend and the newcomer Dances On The Sand would not need to be anything special to get involved.
