GO WEST YOUNG MAN has yet to win over fences but has been placed twice in better races than this since the turn of the year and, with his yard in better form now, looks ready to open his account. Box Office beat a subsequent winner at Market Rasen in March but has failed to figure in a couple of starts since and has been disappointing on the whole. Golden Investment has only finished out of the frame once over the larger obstacles and is gradually slipping down the handicap and he is preferred to Munsaab and Play The Ace, both running for the first time since January.
