      Verdict

      Power Link beat Baby Steps by only a head over 6f here last month. It’s hard to separate that pair but both have plenty to prove over this extra furlong and GLENN COCO makes more appeal. Stuart Williams’ charge rattled-up a four-timer in the first half of this year and is only 1lb higher than when last successful on the all-weather. Finoah and Young Fire have both won at Haydock this year and the former was placed here when last on an artificial surface while Woodside Wonder is upped in class.
