Verdict
Come On Me Babby is making his racecourse debut and the other four have proved frustrating to follow so far. The mare Global Famenglory has started favourite in both runs this year but may find one too good again in the shape of HAURAKI GULF, who has also been hitting the crossbar with regularity though in arguably better company. Good Work has been chasing and has only run once over hurdles and not since 2020 but Exmoor Forest has improved for a switch of stables so can’t be ignored.
