GREENROCK ABBEY is due to race off a 10 lb higher mark in future and he can follow up his recent Market Rasen chase success back over hurdles. Saligo Bay is well handicapped returning to this sharper test and has been in fine form on the Flat, he's feared most ahead of Book of Secrets who ran well over this C&D in a higher grade last season and having shaped encouragingly on reappearance earlier this month, looks interesting with a hood now refitted.
