Glaer is related to winners in France and is worth a second glance on her debut representing the Gosden yard. But ABERFFRAW has form in the book with a close-up fourth over today’s trip at Chelmsford and is preferred to the more-exposed Hello Baileys, placed at Thirsk last time. Sports Reporter finished well ahead of Camouflaged in testing going at Redcar recently though neither threatened while Kumasi can only improve after struggling at York on his debut.
