Verdict

Charlotte's Chum has joined Gordon Elliott recently and though showing little can't go any lower in the ratings. At the other end of the weight scale, Timmone only just failed to justify strong support when tackling 3m at Tipperary where he was in the lead at this trip so connections will be looking for compensation. DAMUT I'M OUT hasn't had much experience but ran very well when chasing home Mister Butler at Bellewstown last week and can go one better despite a 4lb rise. His stable companion Smiling Jessica has just joined the yard and was better known as a chaser in the UK while Benarty Hill, another who has done better over fences, is better suited by testing ground.
