CROSSBEAU was much improved when making a winning return at Chepstow last month and is fancied to follow up with Sean Bowen retained in the saddle. The market should offer plenty of clues regarding the returning Moore runners, handicap debutant Our Papa Smurf perhaps the most likely of the pair on paper. Of the rest, Smart Casual should take a step forward from his reappearance, while Master Dunraven merits a market check.
