In depth
Verdict
Rated 82, Teraabb sets a decent standard after going close at Yarmouth and is weighted to get the better of Chelmsford third Debora's Dream. But PLACO took a step forward when beaten only a head at Newmarket last month and the Gosdens’ charge should go close again in this. Biographer can do better back over today’s longer trip and is preferred to Moyassr and the newcomer Aye Fred.
