Verdict
COME ON BEAR (NAP) not only drops down a grade but also escapes a penalty after winning an apprentice’s race at Wolverhampton. Alan Bailey’s charge should be bang there at the finish again in this company. The British Lion and Drop Kick Murphi filled the places in a classified contest here recently but the latter re-opposes on better terms while Rosarno finished just in front of Rinty Maginty when winning a classified race here last month but failed to figure back in a handicap last time. Jack Louie is less exposed than most and makes most appeal of the remainder.
