Potters Charm
Selected at: 1/1

Potters Charm has been faultless in three starts under rules so far. He was an impressive winner of a bumper at Ffos Las last term and followed up well on hurdling debut at Worcester. Scoring nicely under a penalty here last time, he looks like the one to side with once again.

Verdict
