        Verdict

        Branscombe makes a quick reappearance having won easily at Lingfield last week. He’s penalised for that success and races on the Fibresand for the first time along with Gabrial The Devil. The latter went close at Wolverhampton recently and is upped in class along with Monks Stand, who scored over track and trip earlier in the month. But CROSSE FIRE just missed out in a tougher contest over course and distance last week with Siege Of Boston back in fourth and Scott Dixon’s charge looks to have every chance of repeating last year’s success in this.
