Verdict

PRESENT VALUE made a winning reappearance in this race last year and, resuming on the same mark this time round, he is taken to repeat the dose. French-recruit Oxygen can be expected to leave his Lingfield effort well behind here and is feared for the in-form Venetia Williams yard. Yellowstone Park is a potential improve now pitched into a handicap, while Spanish Present remains of interest despite a disappointing handicap bow at Cheltenham.
