ISKABEG LANE has been in good form around Market Rasen lately. He could have done without a further 4lb rise but his sound jumping could be too much for most of these and front-runners can take some catching around here. The penalised Mount Oliver looks the danger as the horse he beat at Fontwell, For Carmel, ran well again at Lingfield earlier this week. Inchcolm has every chance last time when well backed and has become expensive to follow while Huntingdon third Tommy The Rascal will be racing from out of the handicap.
