AMERICAN CRICKET is effectively a winner without a penalty given a 5lb rise for his recent win at Leicester is offset by Adam Wedge's claim. He may be capable of following-up today as he's already a winner over these fences. Night Alliance never recovered from an early blunder when sent off favourite at Newbury last time having won at Cheltenham before that though he was engaged in a much tougher event at Cheltenham yesterday., Irish import Macra Na Feirme has a bit to find on October's third at Downpatrick and Gentle Bob could prove best of the rest.
