SENSE OF WORTH made a promising stable debut when third at Wolverhampton on Friday, particularly when you consider that he was denied a clear run, so he makes plenty of appeal from the inside stall. Stately Home has been off since October but this represents a big drop in class so he’s well worth monitoring in the market, with Wake Up Harry another to consider after a better showing last time
