Verdict

NEFF looks capable of defying a penalty to register his second hurdles victory in this nine runner novices' contest. The selection was a winner here on debut in October and he is taken to get the better of Cogital who finished behind the selection when the pair met at Plumpton earlier this month. Soldier To Follow, absent for over a year can finish third on his debut over jumps.
