Verdict

SWAYWITHSIERRA (3) had to work when racing parked first up at Charlton so wasn't disgraced when beaten less than 7 metres. Will be improved by that and is likely to get the favours from this nice draw. JANSEN (8) has been ticking along well with a string of top-four finishes to his name. Will enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw and the sprint lane is in play so could be dangerous. BEAU BECA (7) draws wide so may need some luck but has yet to finish worse than fourth so can be competitive again. ARZALI ROCKSTAR (1) was solid from this barrier last start and should enjoy the drop in grade to maiden company.
