Verdict

BRACKEN BRAE found only one too good when runner-up over track and trip last month. Mark Tompkins' charge gets another chance in this and can confirm running with Glasgow Central. White Dog improved for the step up to 1m2f last time and may be capable of better still over today's longer distance while Smugglers Lane has a shout dropping back down in trip with an apprentice's allowance further helping his cause.
