Verdict

Even a further 13 lb rise may not prevent the thriving BOLLIN THOU from completing a 4-timer. Precious Metal looks capable of better now moving into handicap company for the first time and may give Nick Scholfield's charge most to do.

Bollin Thou silk

Continues to go the right way in handicaps for current yard, having little trouble completing the hat-trick when landing the odds at Lingfield (19.5f, soft) 12 days ago. Another 13 lb higher now but it may not stop him.

Listed bumper win at Cheltenham last winter and has made a promising start to his hurdle career this time round, finishing runner-up on first 2 attempts before winning 2m Lingfield maiden in December. Up in trip for handicap debut. Almost certainly capable of better again.

Fairly useful ex-French hurdler who got off the mark on his yard debut in 3-runner novice hurdle at Ffos Las (2½m, good) in October. Off since ahead of this switch to handicaps.
