Verdict

Moon Over Miami is selected here ahead of Templer and Space Cowboy. Rated 117 over hurdles, Templer jumped moderately when fourth on his Cheltenham chasing debut and, in the circumstances, did well to finish so close to the winner. So long as he has learned from that experience, he looks set to go well. However, Moon Over Miami achieved a rating in the 130s over hurdles and probably needed the run when also jumping modestly at Kempton on his seasonal return. He should strip fitter and be smarter for that run and can also go well. Space Cowboy was ahead of him in that Kempton race so cannot be ruled out of a good run. For the selection, then, we return to Moon Over Miami.
