Verdict

Gassin Golf had an alternative engagement here yesterday. Abidjan makes a quick reappearance under a penalty after landing a minor event at Exeter on Thursday but still makes more appeal than Broughton, only fourth off his new mark at Market Rasen though not beaten far. Makethedifference steps up in grade in a bid for a hat-trick while Dresden is better over fences. Ballyglasheen often flatters to deceive and Discay may need this but there are possibilities about COOL SKY, placed twice on the Flat last month and in good form over hurdles around this time last year.
