Verdict

Beg To Differ could easily give McCoy another winner as his latest third at Bangor was a much-improved effort. But OZZY THOMAS was only beaten four lengths by Two For Tea at Towcester on Boxing Day and that winner gave the form a major boost when he ran away with the Lanzarote at Kempton earlier this month. A repeat of that effort would probably suffice. Billy Buff and Jack Steel are both winning pointers while Georgieshore was chucked in at the deep end at Haydock on Saturday but hasn't had much recovery time. River Bollin is probably capable of better but will be better off in handicaps.
