Verdict
Upton Park is penalised for winning at Wolverhampton in October but may improve further over this longer trip. Bellstreet Bridie and Sonairt are others upped in distance while SABYINYO moves in the opposite direction having been beaten only a neck by the odds-on favourite over a longer trip at Bath on his debut. Clear of the rest on that occasion, Mick Channon’s grey can go one better. Cosmic Reef is related to a couple of winners and is a newcomer to note.
