WINTERED WELL returned from a break to win at Uttoxeter last Saturday. Connor Ring's claim takes care of his penalty and a quick follow-up looks on the cards. Winning chaser Wilde Pastures wasn't disgraced over the smaller obstacles at Hexham last month while Amir Pasha is a dual course and distance winner. Bobs Lady Tamure was third on her handicap debut at Hexham and Baraboy has hinted at ability but Copt Hill is hard to win with nowadays.
