Verdict

MASSENA makes a swift reappearance after finishing second at Taunton on Monday. He wasn't beaten far and the seven-times chase winner should thrive on this even sharper track as he likes to race up with the pace. Unex Modigliani made a promising start over timber when only beaten half-a-length at Huntingdon. There should be more to come and he rates the danger as Breaking The Bank's best form on the Flat was on fast going. Prouts Pub won a bumper on the Polytrack in November but hasn't been seen since while Kelvingrove will probably need a stiffer test than this.
