Holbrook Park returned to form when just failing to catch the winner over course and distance a fortnight ago but is penalised for an earlier success at Fakenham. MINMORE PRESENT may well take advantage of the weight concession as the winning pointer showed some promise on his debut over regulation fences despite losing out in match a Warwick to Solighoster. Normal progress should see him go close given Ticket To Ride was well beaten in a match at Huntingdon on his debut over fences and chasing newcomer Chill In The Wood has not raced since 2015.
