Verdict
LANDOFSMILES has rewarded the patience of the Bowens with two victories since returning from a long layoff and a 3lb rise for a Uttoxeter success does not appear unduly harsh. Bodhisattva ran with credit at the Galway Festival and is clearly better than his previous effort around Hexham implies. Jony Max wasn't beaten far on his most recent visit to Cartmel while Eagle Terrace won on a debut for the stable but this assignment looks much tougher and he was well beaten here on Saturday. Tommie Beau appears to be just about best of the rest.
