Although those towards the head of the handicap like Gentleman Jon and Orbasa have some good form to their name neither are that reliable for win purposes. The same could be said of Theatrical Star and with Treaty Girl making her way back from a wind op and an absence this can be left to course specialist I’M IN CHARGE. He’s a three-time winner here and even though he’s lightly-raced of late his comeback over hurdles showed that he still had plenty of ability left and he’s been given a chance by the handicapper.
