Market Rasen winner OCTOBER STORM was a stayer on the Flat and looked ready for a step up in trip when second here last week. He can make a race of it with Fontana Ellissi, who has to concede 7lb having already won twice and is possibly flattered by a mark of 123. The other pair will likely be playing for places.
