    Verdict

    ABBREVIATE was conceding 12lb to Midnight Target when going down narrowly at Huntingdon. That was his best run to date and he's given the nod over Scotchtown, who has also been conceding lumps of weight in handicaps. Cadeau Du Bresil did well over hurdles in Ireland but has shown nothing in three starts over fences.
