COULDBEAWEAPON clearly isn't the easiest to win with but there have been more encouraging signs with a tongue tie fitted of late and he could be the answer to this tricky puzzle. C&D winner Pittsburg who quickly switches back to larger obstacles is an obvious threat, whilst confidence behind Restandbethankful returned to this venue would need to be viewed positively.
