The 7lb penalty that Gone Platinum carries is to a certain extent negated by the claim of top conditional James Bowen and having shown a liking for this course he’s expected to go well again. GREAT TEMPO moved well through his race last time and given his hurdling form he looks to be on a very good mark here. The same could be said of Le Curieux who is another who looks well handicapped now although his chasing run last time wasn’t as taking as that of the selection. State The Obvious is another that can stake a claim here.
