Verdict
Atrafan beat ROCKLEY POINT a neck over track and trip last month but the latter has subsequently gone close again in better company than this and can reverse running. The selection also finished in front of third-placed Gigi's Beach here earlier with subsequent runner-up Eldelbar and Billy Dylan further behind. Bringing Glory drops down in trip having finished closer over 7f at Wolverhampton on his handicap debut and has more scope than most.
