COME ON BEAR escaped a penalty for an earlier win at Wolverhampton and took advantage to score at Chelmsford last time. It could pay to stick with Alan Bailey’s mare as she has more scope than Little Miss Kodi, third behind the selection at Wolverhampton on her return to action. Bold Decision has returned a losing favourite the last twice now but Just An Idea and My Law won their penultimate outings though were both well beaten last time. Indian Affair has run well over 6f in both starts for new connections and has won over this longer trip in the past.
