Verdict
It was heavy ground when BEAUBOREEN scored over 3m2f at Huntingdon last month. The runner-up has run well again since and Jennie Candish's charge is taken to defy an 8lb rise. Tweedledrum is back in more suitable company having been well beaten in Graded races of late and Hexham novice hurdle winner Kilbree Chief could figure on his handicap bow. Rattlin failed to cope with a 10lb rise for an earlier win over track and trip when runner-up back here in December, while American Life has been raised a further 5lb for finishing second at Taunton last time and was due to run at Catterick yesterday.
