The main two in this judging by the market looks to be Kayf Adventure and Ballyarthur with both having shown aptitude for fences so far although the former needs to bounce back from a poor effort last time. The latter may well improve on his first outing over the larger obstacles but a chance is taken here with WANDRIN STAR from the Kim Bailey yard. The trainer is in good form at the moment and it may be significant that they switch this one to fences very quickly. Perfect Pirate has already won over hurdles here so we know the course suits and he along with Hogan’s Height give this race some depth.
