Verdict

TREMENDOUS TIMES was caught in the final strides at Carlisle last month and looks set to open his account off his current mark. Stablemate Sea In The Dark was no match for the winner when second at Thirsk on his handicap debut while Two Rivers placed over a longer trip here and cheekpieces are added. My Harrison George and Timely Escape are other unexposed types open to improvement.
