Verdict
Abstract has failed to figure in a couple of outings since scoring at Lingfield while stablemate Destinado’s earlier victory came in a classified contest. Stormingin only won an amateurs’ race over a shorter trip here earlier while RESET BUTTON returned a beaten favourite again when second over 2m at the track. But the latter has undergone a breathing operation subsequently so gets the vote to go one better in this. Liva is back on a winning mark though hasn’t raced since last summer.
