Race preview
COURTANDBOULD stepped up on some promising bumper efforts when scoring readily on his hurdling debut over an extended 2m2f here and despite having to shoulder a penalty for that success, he can follow up. Bashful Boy defied odds of 100/1 when third behind a smart Tom Lacey inmate at Uttoxeter and he should give another good account, while Be Fair also merits consideration having shown plenty on the Flat since his Doncaster sixth in February.
