This won't take much winning and Kilvergan Boy, who has gone close on several occasions, has every chance of finally breaking his duck over the larger obstacles. Itzacliche is something of a Market Rasen specialist but is a pound lower than when third at that track on his latest start and can't be ignored but we're giving another to chance to the less-exposed MACDOUGAL. A first-fence blunder at Cartmel on his reappearance hardly helped his cause but he recovered to hold every chance on the final circuit before a lack of fitness told. He'll be a lot stronger here and is fancied to reverse that form with winner Glacial Rambler. Hunter chaser Floreana may be best of the rest.
