Verdict

Huff And Puff carries a penalty for an earlier win at Kempton but could still finish thereabouts while The Banastoir is also penalised for his win at Perth back in July. OUR KAEMPFER may well take advantage given he has decent form in bumpers and finished a lot closer on only his second start over hurdles when third at Doncaster last month. Film Director ran out at the first obstacle on his hurdling bow but had been placed in bumpers before that and Charlie Cook may also figure on his first start over timber.
