COME ON TEDDY took a big step forward last time in a race that is working out well and on that form it will take a rival to run to a mark of over 130 to beat him. As a result Bbold has work to do giving him 6lb judged on his BHA rating of just 122. A bigger threat comes from Nicky Henderson's Versatility. The son of Yeats stepped up considerably when fourth in a £30k bumper last time and he is sure to be well prepared for his hurdling bow.
