BOLTON HALL has a touch of class, and he is taken to get the better of Rio Laine and Spirit of Lake in an open affair. Spirit of Lake took advantage of a sliding handicap mark to fill the runner up spot recently. That was his best effort to date, and he can hit the frame here. Rio Laine was having his first run for three months when third on his handicap bow. He is likely to come on for the outing, and lightly raced is open to further improvement. A winning sprinter on the Flat, Bolton Hall seems to need a great deal further over hurdles, and he won his first race in this sphere recently. He seems to have a renewed zest for the game, and only 4lbs higher here, Bolton Hall can double his winning tally over timber.
