MARFORD MISSILE made the most of favourable terms to beat higher rated horses than he takes on here when successful in a Folkestone claimer last week. He should be following up in this company. Lady Layla had gone close at Wolverhampton a couple of times before disappointing when favourite at Chester and Sujet Bellagio has struggled since his Polytrack maiden win at the start of the year. Tunnager Grove is another who has posted his best efforts on the all-weather so far, though he's still preferred to Tooley Woods and Ficelle.
