MR LINCOLN (3) responded very well for the addition of cheekpieces when bolting up by 8L at Hexham (3100m) last month. Sure to go close again if they continue to have the desired effect. AIR APPARENT (1) got on the board on chasing debut at Bangor (3500m) three weeks ago holding out to win by 0.5L. Can only progress from that. TOMMYS LAW (2) was returning from a 19-month layoff when unseating rider (when well beaten ) at Perth (4000m) latest. Finds it difficult to win but a drop back to 3200m should be in favour with added fitness. GALIDAM (4) hit the placings on a couple of occasions over fences last term. Dropped to an appealing rating.
