Verdict

Be On Time has been raised 5lb after making a winning UK debut at Worcester but is only a four-year-old so more improvement should be forthcoming. However, this looks a more competitive affair with Skint and Midnight Chorister both capable of their day. Artifice Sivola, Snowell, Sportsreport and MONEY FOR NOTHING are all returning from a break so a market check is advised. But the latter was knocking on the door in the spring and it would be no surprise if he finally got his head in front over fences having finished second in all four starts so far over the larger obstacles.
