Verdict
PAPA TANGO CHARLY returned from an absence with a good effort at Wetherby. Beaten only a head on that occasion, he can go one better in this. Inca Rose is fitted with a tongue-tie on his reappearance having finished runner-up at Exeter in November while Lies About Milan finished closer at Bangor recently. Name Of Fame has joined Dan Skelton’s yard after placing in a point-to-point and debuts under Rules along with Monty Guiry.
