KNOT ON TIME has been in good form over hurdles this summer, winning at this venue in August, and ought to make a chaser, so he's preferred to The Abbey, who has been runner-up on both his starts over fences thus far. James Boru should build on his chasing debut now upped to a more suitable trip and is also worthy of consideration.
