Verdict

Only half-a-length separated Wink Of An Eye and SOMETHING ENTICING at Newmarket last month with Pure Bubbles back in fourth. David Elsworth’s filly is 3lb better off with the winner and the stiff finish here should play to her strengths. Urban War and the hat-trick seeking Helm Rock try a new trip but the latter has his ground again while a return to 1m2f might help Rewired stage a revival. Big Boy Bobby remains unexposed but has something to find with Forever Forward on Salisbury running. The handicapper has taken no chances with Aveta but Mustazeed receives weight all round, despite winning at Yarmouth, and Gleneaglet looks to be improving.
