Verdict
Maybe the likes of Bread and Moving Upwards will improve for the move into handicap company in what appears a weak contest, as demonstrated by Krazy Paving heading the weights despite having finished last of seven and last of ten on his two starts this term. SECRET GLANCE failed to fire last time at Doncaster but is probably the one to beat if able to recapture the consistency shown through a series of placed efforts during the winter campaign. He is a hopeful choice, whilst Pyroclastic would also be of interest if handling this first experience of grass. My Mate disappointed last time but has claims on the best of his form for Clive Brittain.
