In depth
Verdict
Florenza has been thereabouts off this mark in both starts this year but she is on a long losing run and isn’t getting any younger. We like the look of GLENN COCO in a competitive opener with Atzeni doing the steering. Stuart Williams’ grey is best on a galloping track whereas Aweemaweh seems to favour going around a bend. Harbour Vision hasn’t shown much this year while End Zone seems best over 6f but Athollblair Boy and Capla Berry are both past course and distance winners and the latter should be suited by dropping back a furlong.
