Ours always tries hard and is fairly handicapped so has to be considered as the likes of Forty Five, who returns from a lay-off, and Daneva struggle to get their head in front. Tyup Pompey may not be the force of old while Sky Calling has a bit to prove having been pulled up on his reappearance at Newton Abbot, though that was his first run since December. SADLER'S STAR doesn't look badly treated and probably sees out this trip a little better than recent Uttoxeter third Overlaw. Michael Blake's charge gets the vote.
