Verdict
ALCALA looked in control when coming to grief at Ludlow and can make amends here at the chief expense of The Dellercheckout. The latter won cosily at Ludlow earlier this month, when Asangy fell, but that’s earned him a 6lb penalty. Wishing And Hoping beat a decent field at Taunton having won his last three points but this might require further improvement.
