Verdict

Make My Day was beaten in a three-runner race here 10 days ago and has eight lengths to find with JARAMILLO (NAP) on Newbury running. Warren Greatrex’ charge was in the process of giving an odds-on favourite a run for his money when falling earlier at Warwick and looks capable of winning a race like this. Gin Coco has endured a prolonged absence and a change of stable since second at Sedgefield last season while Sublime Heights and Forward Plan are starting to look exposed. The latter’s stable companion Gabriel's Getaway and Bobalot may do better, however.
