Verdict
ARMED RESPONSE is upped 4lb after making all to score over track and trip last time and there should be more to come from him. Lord Of The Glen won over 5f here recently and seems best over the minimum trip but Move It Move It was beaten only a neck over course and distance during the summer and went close again over 7f here last month. I'm Yer Man is worth noting handicapping for the first time today while Big Les won over 6f at Pontefract in October and is 6lb higher as he drops in class.
