Verdict

An open feel despite the small field and it could just pay to side with handicap-debutant THE KNIPHAND. He shaped like a stayer in his qualifying runs over hurdles, seemingly finding the drop back to 2m an inadequate test at Hereford latest and he's fancied to take a step forward having his first crack at 3m. The Height of Fame, who arrives in search of the 5-timer, and Armchair Farmer may emerge as the chief threats.

  1. THE KNIPHAND (FR)
  2. THE HEIGHT OF FAME
  3. ARMCHAIR FARMER (IRE)
