Verdict

COVERHAM has shown good progress so far this year and landed a double with a recent success at Kempton. There looks more to come from him. Bold Spirit may have won at Southwell last month but tends to save his best for Catterick while Nibras Again was a well beaten second at Chelmsford last time. East Coast Lady should be sharper for a recent pipe-opener at Windsor but Lucky Louie usually finds at least one too good and Grinty is preferred on his return to action off his current mark.
