Verdict

Heavy going may have been to blame for Fouburg's run at Doncaster last time and he has more scope than the likes of Authorized Too and Preseli Star. Valhalla has hinted at ability but this will surely be too sharp for the ex-pointer. Imperial Presence made a winning start over course and distance in November but the second hasn't managed to frank the form and he looks to be facing a stiff task off level weights against BRAIN POWER (NAP). He beat a couple of decent novices here in November and may just have needed the run when beaten by Charbel in a Class 2 event at Musselburgh last month.
