Verdict
Presence Felt is two from two here but has a lengthy absence to overcome. Applesandpierres is worthy of consideration after a pipe-opener at Market Rasen while Little Bruce has an excellent record here and another big run is anticipated. RYEDALE RACER finished ahead of him at Hexham in October, however, and might be good enough to pick up the winning thread again today if ridden positively by Brian Hughes. Bright Tomorrow looks the pick of the remainder ahead of Only Orsenfoolsies and Modulus.
