The penny has dropped with MARTY TIME as he won with the proverbial ton in hand at Hexham 11 days ago. Rocket Robbo was staying on when falling at Southwell last month but was only sixth behind Doors Breaker at Doncaster before that. Braganza Bay has won twice over longer trips this season so will be keeping on in the closing stages and Imperial B G should be winning sooner rather than later. Some Scope and Aldsworth are only five-year-olds and unexposed in handicaps.
