Verdict
Hurricane Hollow has won bumper and hurdle races and has his first start since 2015 as he debuts on the Flat for a new yard. Absolute Angel has won a bumper but was well beaten here on her debut under Flat rules while Lopes Dancer is rated 74 but has not raced since last May when placed at Pontefract. Delphyne can figure with any further progress having finished fourth at Wolverhampton recently but a chance is taken CRAY improves for the longer trip after keeping on well to finish third over a mile here three weeks ago.
