The Name¿s Bond, Ostfanni and Treaty Flyer are the ones to consider here and The Name¿s Bond can score. Having scored twice on the Flat at Musselburgh recently, Ostfanni comes here in good heart, and also has a recent Kelso success over hurdles to his credit. He weakened into fourth on his latest start though and may be a little high in the handicap. After Stratford and Aintree runs where he finished second on each occasion, Treaty Flyer made no mistake here last time but now faces a step up in trip and a ten pound rise in the ratings which could be prohibitive. After wins at Hexham and Newcastle during the winter, The Name¿s Bond returned to winning ways at Worcester last time. Only five pounds higher here, The Name¿s Bond can shoot down his opponents here.
