ATLANTA BRAVE cemented his bright start over hurdles when getting off the mark in a Chepstow maiden 3 weeks ago and, with further progress anticipated now his stamina is drawn out further, he could well be up to defying a penalty. Spring Meadow shaped better than the distance beaten suggests at Warwick in November and could well get back on track, with Hauraki Gulf completing the shortlist

RACE SUMMARY

GENEROUS DAY has returned to form on his last 2 starts and still remains on a workable mark, so he is taken to score again in his current mood back down in trip. He can see off the challenge of last-time-out winner Rose Sea Has, while Galop de Chasse could bounce back from a lesser effort earlier in the month.
