Verdict

RAILWAY MUICE won very easily at Market Rasen having a first start for Sarah Humphrey and can defy a 12lb rise to complete the hat-trick ahead of Ship Of The Fen, who may have stamina limitations, and Achy Breaky Heart. The latter will stay but has been raised 2lb for finishing second at Newton Abbot. Blue N Yellow is now 0-10 over fences and apparently going backwards.
