DOC MCCOY (4) did a good job to clock-in second two back in a hurdle (3900m) at Huntingdon then improved sharply to chalk-up a big win (4000m) at Ffos Las three days ago, arriving 5.5 lengths ahead of his rivals. Tough to stop again. THE BOLD THADY (2) wasn't far away when resuming from a layoff last start, beaten 1.3 lengths into second in a hurdle (4800m) at Ludlow. Genuine contender with added fitness. SAM'S AMOUR (3) made a winning return last time out in a hurdle (3700m) at Stratford-On-Avon, partnered by today's jockey Adam Wedge. Boasts strong second-up stats and looks perfectly placed to add to her record. Will strip fitter and looms large again. GETAWAY DRUMLEE (1) was unplaced two starts ago in a hurdle (4700m) at Uttoxeter then produced a better result last time when he wound up in fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths, in a hurdle (3900m) at Chepstow. No surprise to see him back in form.
