There is more to come over fence from MINE'S A PINT and the seven-year-old looks worth following on his handicap debut. The gelding won in novice company last time but created a very favourable impression in the process. Quite By Chance goes well at this course and is rated as a player now that he's back on a handy mark; while Opening Batsman also raises his game at Wincanton and would be dangerous to overlook despite his advancing years.
