Verdict

Flashing Glance is back in the right grade but is looking a few pounds too high now. Leoncavallo was fifth in the Triumph Hurdle in 2015 and worth a market check having his first run for Richard Newland. Champagne City was a progressive sort last year but lacks a recent run whereas Peruvien Bleu was third here last month having won his three previous starts over course and distance. COCKNEY WREN (NAP) easily accounted for a subsequent winner at Taunton on her first run after a wind operation and a mark of 122 on her handicap debut looks workable.
