Verdict

All four of these step up in distance but Bright Eyed Eagle and Gibraltar return from lay-offs so this looks between the remaining pair. Glenties was placed at Haydock a week ago when giving the impression this extra distance will suit but BODYLINE is just preferred. A fast-finishing runner-up over 1m2f on his handicap debut at Yarmouth at the start of the month, he’s fancied to improve for the longer trip like so many from his yard.
