        Verdict

        Buena Vista can beat Adjami, with Kilindi and Text best of the remainder. Buena Vista did not race for Aidan O'Brien but quickly made his mark over here when successful in bumper company at Doncaster in January. He was then pitched in at the deep end when lining up as one of Martin Pipe's three runners in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham, and fared best of the trio in finishing sixth under Jamie Spencer. The son of In The Wings makes his debut over hurdles today and should outclass the opposition if his jumping holds up. Adjami has to carry a penalty for his easy win at Bangor last time and although he has more experience over obstacles, the weight difference will be crucial against a rival with scope. Kilindini made all at Plumpton but is another that has to hump a seven-pound penalty as a result, and with Text well held when second to Ma Yahab at Ludlow, the scene looks set for Tony McCoy to get his day off to a good start.
