In depth

Verdict

Having won between the flags, MINMORE PRESENT has been a little disappointing under Rules so far but should strip fitter for his handicap debut at Fakenham where he made several mistakes. Is Love Alive and Lady Master both ran poorly last time but Arthur's Reuben got off the mark over course and distance two weeks ago and may have more to offer. Baron Du Plessis is closely matched with Is Love Alive on the form book.
