In depth
Verdict
It may not pay to take the form of All Change’s run at Doncaster in January too literally. Onelasthand was still beaten 16 lengths when third at Hexham but Rusty Fox can improve on his fourth at Southwell. STAGED ENGAGEMENT is improving with experience and the Irish raider can make it third-time lucky ahead of Sue Smith’s pair Bea My Star and Bobndave.
