Verdict
Lingfield runner-up Halondo is helped by a conditional’s allowance but Good News is upped in class after placing at Stratford and cheekpieces are applied to Ballydisco after a couple of poor efforts. But PARICOLOR (NAP) has been set stiff tasks at Cheltenham lately and finished in front of High Stakes when third on his penultimate start. He should fare better back in this lower grade and a bold bid is expected.
