U S S CHARLESTON left his debut effort a long way behind when a strong-finishing second in a 5f Leicester maiden last month and, with the promise of better to come, he is confidently expected to go one better this time. Similarly, Dark Alley showed the benefit of his first outing when also finding just one too good at Windsor and he rates the clear main danger ahead of newcomer Tafah. Fellow debutant Faraway Tree is probably more of a long-term prospect.
