Bumper-winner TREYARNON BAY was a shade disappointing on her Huntingdon hurdling debut in December, but that was a much warmer race than this and she could prove a different proposition now. Sergeant Wilson and Jaramillo look the main threats.

BOLSOVER BILL has been in tremendous form over fences in recent months, rattling off a hat-trick at Ffos Las prior to losing little caste in defeat when runner-up at Catterick 8 days ago. He remains one to be interested in and gets the nod, with low-mileage chase debutant Camulus and Getabuck back down in trip fancied to pose the chief threats.

PREDICTION:

Don’t forget to bet on the 4:00 at SOUTHWELL and 4:10 at WINCANTON.

PLAY SMARTER

PACHACUTI looks well up to winning a handicap from this sort of mark, travelling as well as any when a fine second at Hereford last time. Bashers Reflection made a winning start in handicaps at Warwick last time and he should continue to go in the right direction, while Small Bad Bob sprang back to form over C&D last time and lurks on a potentially workable mark.
