Verdict
This looks less competitive than the previous division and it could pay to take a chance on ABRUZZO MIA despite his absence as the six-year-old has only raced six times and should have more to offer. Kats Bob won over 6f at Ayr two runs ago and finished in front of the previous winner Caribbean Sunset when runner-up back at the same track but Danzart still looks high enough in the weights having notched a hat-trick early in the season.
