ORTHODOX LAD ran a cracker in a Listed handicap at Market Rasen last Saturday. That was arguably his best run to date and, off the same mark here, he should prove difficult to beat with a repeat effort. West Brit has been raised 7lb for winning at Huntingdon while Hi Note has gone off the boil a little since winning twice on the Flat in August. Street Entertainer has his sights lowered and is starting to look very well treated. He may be the danger if recapturing his best and Callisto Moon has each-way claims but a number of the others are returning from a break.
