The market should prove a useful signpost in a contest in which the latest run of TWASN'T THE PLAN (NAP) sets the form standard. Not that the level is anything special but his one-pace third at Warwick after making the running is far superior to anything achieved by the other three to have run. Corrie Lake's pointing effort is the best of the rest but the major threat should be delivered by Felix D'autry. The Sherwood yard have a decent record at this venue and their newcomer would not have to prove anything special in order to take a hand on his racecourse debut.
