Verdict
Chocco Star opened her account with a victory over track and trip last week and should confirm running with Disruptor, Dreamboat Annie and Cool Strutter despite carrying 5lb extra. But the consistent TARSEEKH returns to action having gone close in a tougher race when last over course and distance and Charlie Wallis’ charge may be the one to side with in this. Starchant’s recent placed effort came over the minimum trip here while Falcao finished ahead of Tawaafoq in a seller at Wolverhampton last time though neither threatened.
