BERING UPSUN returned to action with a convincing win at Kelso on his first start over fences. He’s been raised 7lb but James Ewart’s charge should go close again given he beat Mah Mate Bob on that occasion with Warendorf further behind and Newstart a faller. Mah Mate Bob’s subsequent success at Sedgefield came over a longer trip while Choochoobugaloo gets additional headgear having disappointed at Musselburgh a fortnight ago. High Noon may prove best of the remainder debuting for a new yard on his reappearance.
