      Verdict

      Mark Johnston has won the last two renewals and it would be no surprise if Martini Time bounced back from a disappointing effort at Pontefract when odds-on favourite. But FORCE AWAKENS showed a glimpse of promise on her debut at Leicester and Samantha Bell's 5lb claim helps her cause in this. Bossipop got nowhere near the winner when second at Ripon recently and steps up in distance while Candy Hill, a half-sister to four winners makes most appeal of the newcomers.
