ABBEYGREY makes a quick reappearance after winning very easily over 3m at Huntingdon last Sunday. He'll be going up more than the 7lb he's penalised here and should follow up with most of his rivals reappearing following a summer break. Milosam couldn't cope off today's mark at Taunton in April but still fared better than Tuskar Rock in that contest. Neither Tea Caddy nor Where'd Ya Hide It look particularly well treated either and Crude and Duroob have much to prove.
