OUR FOLLETT was sent off odds-on at Bangor on his debut and was disputing second when falling three out. He gets another chance given the others with experience make no appeal though it would be no surprise to see better efforts from the likes of Solomoon and Ghyll Manor. Of the newcomers, The Likely Lad is out of a hurdles winner in France and is preferred to Cawthorne Cracker.
