Verdict
MARTILA won a novice event over course and distance last time and there should be more to come from her now handicapping. Belcanto won at Fontwell last month but was a well beaten third at Newton Abbot despite escaping a penalty and is 5lb higher today. Bygones For Coins has a stack to find with the selection and Miss Joeking has to be forgiven a poor effort at Perth last time having placed at Hexham before that.
