It took Starter For Ten 15 attempts to finally win on the all-weather and he’s gone up 5lb for scoring at Kempton. MARTINEO (NAP) is preferred as he won over track and trip in January and was beaten less than a length back here last time. Bomb Squad has been thereabouts lately and makes more appeal than Another Angel while Youllovemewheniwin is back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best.
