Verdict
BOLLIN THOU completed a four-timer in comfortable fashion at Sandown last month and it's hard to know where the ceiling of his ability lays. Nick Schofield's gelding is now 6lb higher but each of his rivals have something to prove, so this looks a fine opportunity. Paso Doble might fare better eased in class with a first-time tongue-tie applied, and Livingit Du Large remains open to improvement, despite pulling up at Leicester in December.
