Verdict
Recent 1m5f winner Jack Bear beat Turnbury easily enough at Lingfield but failed to cope with a 7lb rise on his latest start. Tempuran never threatened when placed at Bath last time but Honey Badger went close behind Isdaal, who runs in the previous division of this, over 1m3f here last week. It's anybody's guess what mood the likes of Salient and Saint Helena are in having both ran well in between their more usual woeful efforts, so the vote goes to BOLLIHOPE, who has slipped 10lb down the weights since winning his maiden at Haydock in June.
