Poet Mark never threatened when fourth over today's trip at Redcar but still finished ahead of Nickscreamcracker. Mexican Mick has yet to win but finished runner-up in soft ground over 1m4f at Chepstow last time while the less exposed BILLY RANGER also steps up in trip after placing at Musselburgh. The latter gets a speculative vote in a poor handicap with Testing perhaps best of the rest having tumbled 16lb down the weights this year.
