Verdict

Charmant looked an absolute natural over fences when winning at Sedgefield in November but races off an 8lb higher mark in a much stronger race, so this potentially lies between last Saturday's Newcastle scorer Treshnish and the October C&D winner TAYZAR. A narrow preference is for the Ruth Jefferson-trained runner who subsequently finished a rock-solid second off this revised mark (120) at Sedgefield.
