Verdict

C'EST DIFFERENT has thrived since going handicapping upped in trip, making a winning return in good style at Market Rasen in November, and he can land the 4-timer with further progress to come. Heading the list of dangers is Top Guy, who has also improved for longer distances on his last 2 starts, with Block Rockin Beats and Crazierthandaisy others to consider.
