Verdict

The form of BATHIVA's Huntingdon win in March received a boost when the runner-up made a successful return to action recently and she can follow up on her return for new handler Fergal O'Brien. The improving Lots of Luck rates an obvious danger, while Truckers Highway won on his reappearance off 2 lb higher last year so it would be no surprise to see him go well at likely bigger odds.
