Verdict

Hard to know where to begin with this modest bunch but David O'Meara won it last year so Dutch Rose is worth noting on her return. Others open to improvement on their seasonal bows include Rock Of Monet and November's Wolverhampton third Seattle Sounder. Magic Bounty should improve for his recent pipe-opener at Pontefract but the speculative vote goes to GLENNTEN, a close-up third over 6f at Kempton last month with a couple of subsequent winners immediately behind.
