Verdict

Embolden left previous form behind when scoring at Plumpton and a 4lb rise seems fair. Glory Bridge looked to be improving prior to proving a disappointing favourite at Wetherby last month and Dusky Days still had a chance when running out at Ludlow. Scherbobalob won at the same track earlier this month but HOKELAMI, bought out of a seller here recently, can make a winning start for new connections as a third at Market Rasen earlier has worked out well. .
