Formscan - Spadestep hung right in the closing stages when runner-up at Doncaster last month. That spoilt his chances of winning, while the lack of a recent run took its toll on WILLIE SHAKE HANDS in the same race. The latter still finished a gallant third on his first start since July and Sam England's charge is taken to reverse running with that pipe-opener under his belt. Market Rasen winner Freddy Robinson faces a tougher test, but makes more appeal than Double Digits of the remaining pair.
