Verdict
YAGAN looks to have a good opportunity to follow last week’s victory at Yarmouth with another success. This longer trip should suit Sir Mark Prescott’s charge and he can defy a penalty up against such weak opposition. Mandm makes his handicap debut having placed in selling company in all three outings so far but Gyenyame and Cloudy Rose have yet to threaten and the latter is fitted with headgear for the first time.
