Claude Carter has been placed at Market Rasen recently but never really looked like winning on either occasion, though did win off a higher mark last year. FORSTER STREET hasn't raced since April but his form in juvenile events around this time last year suggest he's not badly treated back in handicap company and he gets a tentative vote ahead of Valantino Oyster, who won a selling handicap on the Flat at Beverley earlier this month. Apolskapart has shown some ability but didn't fire in a maiden hurdle at Cartmel last time.
