Verdict

Steel Native won a point-to-point in May but has shown nothing under Rules. Looks Like Power is 0-14 but his comeback run over 2m4f here would put him in the picture for a race like this. PRESENT TIMES could only must the one pace when fifth at Exeter but that was a step up on previous efforts and he wouldn’t need much more to get off the mark here as Appletree Lane may need this.
