Verdict

This looks wide-open with the likes of Kansas City Chief and Salmanazar having the past form to figure though both are returning from an absence. Crixus's Escape and Atomic Rumble have shown progressive form over hurdles despite both struggling on their respective latest starts with the former less exposed and dropping down in class. But a chance is take on KNOCK HOUSE returning to form back over timber today. He's undergone wind surgery since struggling over fences on his reappearance and Donald McCain's yard has sent out the last three winners of this.
