Verdict

CEYHAN was second to the useful Big Country over this trip at Wolverhampton back in February. He got off the mark dropped to this grade at Chelmsford last time and is preferred to Bertie Moon, who won over a mile here in 2013 but has been doing his racing on Fibresand lately. Michigan is relatively unexposed and may be a better bet than Awesome Rock and La Goulue.
