Race Tip

ONLY THE BOLD (3) resumed finishing 0. 8L third over 3m1/4f at Sandown Park. Fitter now and can go on with it. Holds leading claims. KING S THRESHOLD (2) is yet to feature this campaign. Was 8L behind when unplaced in latest attempting 2m6 1/2f here after an earlier Cheltenham run. Better expected and warrants consideration. RIVERS CORNER (8) placed on comeback posting a 9L third tackling 3m4 1/2f at Sandown Park. Could be a force again. Represents a real danger. HOLD THAT TAUGHT (6) struggled so far this season recording a 17L fourth on return then was eased out next time contesting 2m7 1/2f at Newcastle. Needs a sharp turnaround. Makes appeal on past efforts.
