Verdict

Nicky Henderson, who won last year's renewal, had five entered in this at the four-day stage but is happy to let PREMIER BOND take his chance under a penalty. Very well backed over 2m here last month, he didn't let supporters down and gave the impression a step up in trip wouldn't be a problem. Justanother Muddle tackled Grade 2 company over 3m at Cheltenham after beating a subsequent winner at Lingfield but came up short. This is a more realistic level and he shouldn't be discounted. Oneida Tribe and Leg Lock Luke have both won between the flags and have joined powerful NH yards but Behind Time will need to improve on a modest first run here in November.
