Verdict

Having already won a point-to-point and a hurdle race, Ofalltheginjoints looks a likely sort for fences. But Colin Tizzard’s charge was beaten a long way behind Enrilo in a Grade 2 hurdle at Sandown last season, though the latter was subsequently well behind THE CASHEL MAN in the Challow Hurdle at Newbury. A three-times Flat winner, Nicky Henderson’s eight-year-old was a latecomer to jumping but he’s adapted well and is worth a try over the larger obstacles – he’s gone well fresh in the past. Red River has yet to complete over fences but he has few miles on the clock and has had wind surgery since last seen so is worth a second look.
