Forecasts

Dewcup (4/5), Charcor (11/8), January Jets (7/2), Getabay (15/2), Maunganui (16/1), Amlad (16/1), Old Town Road (33/1), Sonny John (33/1), Stopthelights (33/1), Frankfurter (50/1), Stealthy Tom (80/1), Sam Missile (80/1), Mist On The Bog (100/1), Go Willie Joe (100/1), Sir Neymar (125/1), Loyal Lioness (125/1), De Milano (150/1), Durity (150/1), Rio Storm (150/1), Moylisha (200/1)

CHARCOR has a Timeform rating of 106 on the level and this could be a good opening for him first time up over hurdles. Dewcup rightfully should also have plenty of supporters on his first go over timber.
