Verdict

Gatecrasher Girl is upped in class and raised 8lb after landing a double with last month’s victory at Wolverhampton and looks worth taking on with TRABAAN. The latter beat a subsequent winner when scoring at Newmarket on his handicap debut and can defy a 4lb rise. The winning run of Cephalus came to an end over track and trip in April though he has an easier task on this occasion while Aguaplano won a maiden at Redcar recently and novice winner Augmentarium returns to action. Sharp Distinction and Forgivable are other unexposed types to note.
