Race Tip

WALKING ON AIR (2) won here last year on his only previous visit to the course. Lengthy absence to overcome but has been successful when resuming before and rates a key player representing in-form yard. GOLDEN SON (1) placed in two of three fences runs. Respect adopting first-time tongue-tie for the powerful Paul Nicholls stable. BALLYCAMUS (8) was always doing enough when a 1L winner on chase debut at Chepstow. In the mix. PASSING WELL (6) gamely held on to come home in front at Lingfield earning the right to make the shortlist in this higher grade.
