Bold Marc and Powerful Presence arrive in fine fettle having registered wins in this grade on their latest starts. Both should make another bold bid here, but a chance is taken on the less exposed DYSIOS. He was unable to take up a good position in a big field at Newbury last time and never got into it but looked on the upgrade before that and gets the nod in this company. It was only a seller that Orchid Street won at Leicester last time, while Bussa and Star Addition drop back in trip and have a bit to find.
