VENEER OF CHARM caught the eye when keeping on over an extended 1m at Cork last time out and he represents the in form Michael O'Callaghan stable (4/14) in this contest. The selection shaped as if this step up in trip would suit on that occasion and can get the better of Henry's Affair who is now rated 24lb lower than when initially assessed by the handicapper last summer and is well drawn ahead of her debut for shrewd yard here. Les Arceaux ran well enough at Kempton when sent off favourite on his seasonal debut to suggest that he too can be competitive in this.
