Abdon went close under today’s apprentice at Chelmsford recently but may prefer faster going while Century Dream has now won four of only eight starts but all four came over shorter trips. Neither ground nor distance is a worry for MASTER CARPENTER (NAP), who has slipped back down the weights since scoring at York in May, and Rod Millman’s charge can return to winning ways in this. Towerlands Park won his only start of last year at Kempton in December and hasn’t raced since but Genetics should be sharper for a recent comeback at Windsor and has plenty of scope.
