    Verdict

    GLENNTEN's only previous victory on Turf came over this track and trip and he had every chance at this distance when fourth over 1m4f at Bath 11 days ago. He gets a token vote in another ordinary contest ahead of Mr Fickle, who was in jumping action over the winter. Nimble Kimble has won on the Polytrack but there have to be reservations about his stamina over this trip and February's Chelmsford winner Rock Charm needs to bounce back from a shocking effort back on Turf at Pontefract.
