THE BRITISH LION did well to finish second in a C&D minor event 12 days ago given he missed the break and on that evidence he ought to be able to cash in on his lowly mark. Socru is also well weighted lhese days and confirmed he handles fibresand last time, with Van Dijk also considered for all he was seen to full effect when winning last week.
