The potential that Too Much To Ask had been showing for the Jennie Candlish yard was well and unlocked here on Friday over a shorter trip providing Richard Johnson with an armchair ride. It won’t be a surprise if there is more to come under a 7lb penalty although this is tougher and comes quickly facing three other last time out winners. Melody Of Scotland also runs under a penalty but appears to be thriving and should go close if she stays. BORUMA won this in 2017 (one of three C&D vistories) and was third last year, he’s raised 10lb for his recent win but he won this off 1lb higher and was placed off 3lb more last year. Secret Escape and course specialist Allbarnone deserve respect.
