Few of these arrive in any kind of form with Itsuptoyou struggling off his new mark at Market Rasen after winning a small race at Taunton. Kadalkin sprang a surprise at Doncaster in February but was then pulled up in a three-runner race at Warwick and now sports a visor. Mart Lane isn't one to trust but did beat Dursey Sound in a Listed handicap at Market Rasen in September and is a pound better off. DRUMLANG was well behind that day but Ian Williams' charge didn't give his true running. He hasn't been seen over fences since but has won here in the past and will enjoy the ground so could be worth an interest.
