Newton Abbot Friday 16:30 - Price Boost

oddschecker Verdict

Emerald Time benefited from the application of a tongue-tie when gaining a first career success at Worcester and the five-year-old is expected to be competitive once again after going up 6lb. Max Of Stars unseated at Stratford in April but appears likely to have more to offer in this sphere and is worth another chance. However, the vote goes to CHARLUS. Dan Skelton's charge was set some very difficult tasks in the spring at Cheltenham and Aintree, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see him bounce back, especially following a wind operation.

Prediction: 1st Charlus, 2nd Emerald Time, 3rd Max Of Stars
