Race preview
TIME LEADER readily justified favouritism in a similar contest at Leicester and the second from that race has franked the form by winning since. A repeat performance could see him get the better of Marton Abbey, who will arrive full of confidence following a recent victory between the flags. Homme D'Un Soir boasts an official rating of 125 and warrants respect, but he was disappointing in a point-to-point at Sheriff Hutton in January.
