Verdict

AUX LE BAHNN is taken to get the better of Blistering and Perkin Warbeck. The selection showed plenty of promise in bumpers and it looks as though he might be finally fulfilling that over hurdles. He is looking for his third win in a row but he scored with plenty in hand last time and he will relish these ground conditions so he should be hard to beat. Blistering looked a smart prospect in bumpers but he made a couple of mistakes and finished well beaten at Hereford last time. He is lightly-raced and he is capable of better so he is not one to dismiss lightly. Perkin Warbeck looks to be going the right way and he should be respected, while Prey Bird has been in good form over the bigger obstacles. Aux Le Bahnn is on an upward curve and he can win again.
