Verdict

TOWN CHARTER ran well in a valuable Newmarket contest on his penultimate outing and while he disappointed upped in trip at Redcar last time he can take this three-year-old contest for the in form yard of Mark Johnston (22/109). Starlight Romance and Vona are closely matched on their running at this course last month and the pair can fight it out for the minor honours.
