ABSOLUTE RULER was no match for the first two when third in a six-runner C&D novice last week but he faces nothing of the calibre of those rivals this time. Jennie Candlish's charge is confidently expected to resume winning ways on these favourable terms. If able to reproduce something akin to the level of form he showed for Dan Skelton, Book of Secrets will most likely be the one to follow the selection home, with recent Worcester winner No Way Pedro best of the rest.
