LILTING VERSE (5) was unplaced two back in a steeplechase (4800m) at Bangor-On-Dee. Finished second last time in a much better performance in a steeplechase (4900m) at Southwell, beaten 2.75 lengths. Recent form suggests a big run is on the cards. TOP OF THE BILL (1) returns from a 104-day spell. Hasn't raced since he did not finish the race in a steeplechase (5750m) at Sandown Park. Forgive the run before a break. Anticipating a bright return. TAKE YOUR TIME (2) returns after two months in the paddock. Kicked off the last prep with a solid third in a 5100m steeplechase at Haydock Park, beaten 20 lengths. Reliable jumper with five victories to his name from 21 starts. Solid each-way chance. CLASSIC CONCORDE (4) things went awry two runs ago when he in a hurdle (4800m) at this track. Wasn't beaten too far when fourth subsequently in a hurdle (4700m) at Chepstow.
