Verdict
KELKA (NAP) looks the obvious one in this as the Catterick bumper winner only found one too good when favourite in a higher grade over course and distance on her hurdling debut in May. Venetia Williams has sent up a couple of runners from Herefordshire and French import Air De Rock is entitled to respect as he hinted at ability in his native country at the start of the year. After Toniight has won a bumper but that was almost two years ago and his long absence has to be a worry. Most of the others already look exposed.
