Verdict

ALCALA didn't do a lot wrong when finding only a useful point recruit too strong over C&D a month ago and a similar performance may well enable him to go one better. Federici failed to finish his race off behind the selection last time, so a bigger threat may emerge in the shape of Looking Well.
