Verdict
Marleno was second over fences off today's mark at Stratford on Monday. He was beaten 20 lengths but this is a poor race and he should be thereabouts if fully recovered. But we prefer stablemate CAUGHT BY WITNESS who has shown enough lately to suggest he's capable of going close at this lowly level. Fidelor also has a chance on his best form but it's a long time since Thinger Licht produced a worthwhile effort, though he has won here in the past.
