Verdict
SAUCATS scored over C&D before finding only a well-treated rival too strong over C&D last time and can quickly resume winning ways off the same mark here. Nick Schofield's new recruit Mi Sueno could emerge as the main danger ahead of recent Market Rasen winner Makinbecon, who appeals as the pick of the Barry John Murphy-trained trio.
