Verdict

Cameron Bridge and The Newsman both line up in form, with preference for the former. Peccadillo and Montreal may prove best of the rest. Cameron Bridge overcame soft conditions to open his account over fences at Exeter in March, and won rather more easily on fast ground at Ascot later that month. Philip Hobbs's gelding bolted up on his return at Chepstow, where it was noticeable that his jumping had improved, and he can take this lift in grade in his stride. The Newsman always gives his all, and George Wareham's charge is a banker for the frame at least. Successful on seven of his last 10 outings, he normally saves his best efforts for Fontwell but is in the form of his life at present. Montreal, fourth in the Kim Muir, still has the time to make it to the top over fences, while Peccadillo is by the same sire as Best Mate and also came from over from Tom Costello in Ireland. His second to Swansea bay here in October has been made to look all the better by the latter's subsequent victory in Haydock's Edward Hanmer Chase at the weekend. Of the rest, Janiture has a lot more scope than Wise King, but is best watched, and for us it has to be Cameron King to oblige.
