Verdict
Scottish Summit has struggled so far this year and has something to prove on his handicap debut. Bretoncelles has been in better form than the latter in maiden company and could figure but COTE D’AZUR is preferred. Sir Mark Prescott’s charge finished ahead of Absolute Zero and Melabi when runner-up at Yarmouth last month and is taken to confirm running in the process of going one better. Frozen Force won a lower grade contest on the all-weather last month and Loading was still beaten seven lengths when second at Bath.
