Point-to-point winner RAFFERTY took the move into open handicap company in his stride when a decisive winner on first start for the Morgan team at Market Rasen. He tackles a similar trip here on the same forecast ground and the yard appear to have an impressive knack of improving newcomers to the yard. Dreamsundermyfeet rattled up a good ground hat-trick during the summer before the handicapper possibly had his say when a short-priced third at Worcester. He's had a nice break and cannot be discounted in an ordinary-looking affair despite topweight. Uncle O and Begoodtoyourself are next best in receipt of plenty of weight from the top two.
