WINGED SPUR is hard to oppose having run so well in better company at York last week and with the opposition having so many questions to answer. Charlie D is a threat based on his AW form but he is yet to prove he is anywhere near as effective on turf. Mouchee is inconsistent and General Brook may be a bigger threat given his track record, although he can hardly be considered well-handicapped.
