Verdict

LIOSDUIN BHEARNA (NAP) beat Blackjack Kentucky by more than six lengths in a handicap hurdle at Doncaster in February. He is fractionally better off at the weights and his stable is still firing in the winners. Twice a winner over hurdles, Ashfield Paddy also won a point early last year so a switch to fences should be no problem. The Wolf should also go well but he was beaten in a match on his return to action at Bangor. L'Air Du Vent will need to improve on his hurdles form to figure but Doc Penfro may need softer going to show his best.
