Verdict
Eaglesglen ended last year with a course and distance success and has undergone wind surgery subsequently. AVORISK ET PERILS has already the shown the benefit of a wind operation when runner-up at Lingfield last time and now back on a winning mark, Gary Moore’s charge may prove the one to side with. Cafe Milano posted a better effort at Wolverhampton recently and is preferred to Engrave while Channel Packet’s earlier success here came over a mile.
