Epaulement did well last season, winning twice. It’s possible there will be even more to come this year but he faces a stiff task under top weight on his reappearance. Ayutthaya’s reappearance at Pontefract is best ignored as he lost his steering but Kevin Ryan also runs the generally-consistent Everything For You. Mooltazem is starting to look well handicapped but Appointed struggles to get his head in front. Scottish Summit has a squeak but SOCIETY RED (NAP) should now be cherry-ripe after a couple of outings and was just denied off this mark at Pontefract last week.
