Verdict
Miss M won twice at Southwell last summer but wouldn’t want any rain. Northern Bound goes on the shortlist raised only a pound for a close second at Wincanton and Made For You arrives on a hat-trick after a couple of victories at Market Rasen. Wasdell Dundalk is still a maiden but looked to be coming to hand again at Market Rasen but this trip could prove ideal for WHAT A GLANCE. Still unexposed, he’s been running better than form figures would suggest and holds Khan on the form book. Blumen Glory is upped in trip seeking a change of fortune but Guguss Collonges needs more.
