In depth
Verdict
Treacherous faced a tougher task last time but had earlier finished in front of The Lamplighter and Mighty Gurkha when fourth at Kempton. Cherish has been in good form over track and trip and is preferred to Foxy Rascal while Intervention is capable at this level on his day. But ABBEY HEIGHTS returned from over a year off the track with a decent effort at Southwell last month and should be winning off his current mark sooner rather than later.
