Verdict
Glendevon has run here five times and only finished out of the frame once but is having a first run since January. Gabrial The One is on a long losing run while Central City is penalised for beating lesser opposition here last week and Horn Of Plenty went up 5lb after getting off the mark over 1m4f at Wolverhampton. Like a few of these, this trip would be the minimum for CULTURE but Tom Ward’s recent acquisition clearly loves it here so can pounce late and return to winning ways though Fly Falcon, having a first outing for David Menusier after a break, is worth a market check.
