Verdict
Little Bruce takes no prisoners and a strong pace will suit dour stayer Henrietta Bell. Court Baloo is back in form and seeks a fourth course victory with Ryedale Racer attempting to win here for a third time. Sultans Pride was always cantering when scoring by 20 lengths over course and distance last week but Brian Hughes deserts the mare in favour of LOUGH DERG JEWEL, who made a winning return to hurdling here last month and has only been raised 2lb. Skipthescales met trouble in-running over fences here on his return to action and also has claims.
