Verdict
Classic Palace won at Hexham and Cartmel in the summer but was beaten 26 lengths on his last visit to the track and might just struggle here under his penalty. Similar concerns surround Tickenwolf while Jonniesofa makes his debut under Rules having won a couple of times between the flags. WESTERN MILLER can get Charlie Longsdon's raiding party off to a winning start as he's bred to stay this sort of trip and jump hurdles. He only found one too good in a couple of bumpers at Worcester and probably needed the run on both occasions.
