Bollin Line (11/4), Rhythm Of Sound (7/2), Sky Full Of Stars (4/1), Roxyfet (13/2), Bandol (11/1), Roll Of Thunder (11/1), Duhallowcountry (14/1), Monbeg Cave (14/1), Ulis De Vassy (25/1), Captain Sharpe (40/1)

Verdict

This race looks very straightforward assuming that BOLLIN LINE can translate his rapid improvement over hurdles back to fences. His chasing mark is 13lb below his revised hurdles mark, and this looks a very clever piece of placing by his trainer Lucinda Egerton. Tony Kelly partnered him to success at this track at the beginning of the month, and will be no stranger to him with plenty of work likely to be have been done at home over the larger obstacles. Rhythm of Sound arrives unpenalised for last week's Leicester success, but on the whole his profile isn't overly striking. Duhallowcountry goes well at Sedgefield and could potentially out-run his projected odds if left to dictate a steady pace, whilst the booking of Brian Hughes aboard Sky Full Of Stars catches the eye, and even Monbeg Cave shouldn't necessarily be hastily dismissed for a place.
