      Verdict

      There may be a question mark hanging over the participation of LOTUS POND, due to run at Ffos Las on Friday evening. However, he has looked most progressive since joining the Bowen operation and would be the choice if making the journey from Wales to Scotland. Top Billing wasn't beaten at all far here last time over this trip and is of interest off his light weight, whilst Chu Chu Percy didn't shape at all badly on his chasing bow 49 days ago and should improve for the experience. Jassas has to concede upwards of 11lb all round but has looked a useful chasing recruit on both starts over fences and would be the choice if the Bowen inmate fails to show.
