NORTHERN BOUND – Bangor 3.15 (2pt win – 7/2 Bet365)
Progeny of Fruits Of Love take time to mature and also perform best over fences on decent ground. Those aged eight or older, running over the larger obstacles on good to soft or faster going, have landed 41 of their 235 starts (17.5% strike-rate) for a profit of £87.25 to a £1 level stake at SP. NORTHERN BOUND proved unsuited by the return to hurdles at Worcester last time but contributed with a chase win at the same venue on his penultimate start to take his record over fences to 2154111631 (5-10). There’s plenty of early pace among his opponents and the race could be teed up nicely for him.
COURTANDBOULD – Bangor 3.45 (1pt win – 6/1 Hills, 5/1 generally)
COURTANDBOULD goes very well at this time of year, recording form figures of 311211F2 (4-8) from July to September (he’s 0-12 outside of this period). He’s joined Dan Skelton from Fergal O’Brien since pulling up at Worcester in June and his new handler has a solid record at the first time of asking with horses he takes over from other yards. Those who make their debut for Skelton in handicap hurdles won 39 of their 128 starts (30.5%) for a profit of £21.40 to the usual £1 stake. The wind operation could also bring about some improvement.
