      Verdict

      The betting suggested REBEL AT DAWN would take advantage of the drop down to this level at Nottingham and he duly returned a winning favourite. There looks more to come from Karl Burke’s charge but Havagomecca won a lower grade sprint in soft ground at Haydock and will find this tougher. Virginia Plane is another upped in class while Eye Of Heaven has something to prove on the back of a poor reappearance effort at Bath and Lost My Sock is fitted with a tongue-tie still looking for his first win.
