Gold Class missed an engagement at Yarmouth on Wednesday and will go close for an in-form yard if transferring his recent improved form over hurdles back to the Flat. But FROZON was runner-up in a claimer over track and trip last time when up against higher rated horses than these and Brian Ellison’s charge gets the nod to go one better with an apprentice taking 5lb off his back. Medieval Bishop has plenty to find with the selection but Elite Icon drops in class and Flowers Will Bloom may do better now handicapping for the first time.
