Verdict

With this drop back to 0-85 company a good move, ABDUCTION could be the answer. Jim Goldie's charge was a solid third to the progressive English Oak off a 4 lb higher mark at Haydock in May and he has performed well at this course on several occasions. Gressington looks a big threat on the back of his improved display at Beverley, while On A Session should make his presence felt, too.
