It’s no surprise to see ARDEN DENIS (NAP) make a quick reappearance under a penalty as he dotted up over a similar trip at Wincanton last Saturday - Noel Fehily is available again to take the ride. Highland Life left previous form behind when winning easily at Bangor last month and Richard Johnson takes over the reins but Galactic Power steps up in trip after scoring at Catterick and Good Man Hughie has gone up 6lb for winning in the mud at Lingfield. Sober Sailor has been hit with an 8lb rise but Overawed is probably capable of better making her handicap debut.
