ONE MORE NIGHT has failed to complete in two of her previous three starts over fences and hasn't tackled the larger obstacles since 2009. But she is unquestionably well handicapped on her recent form over hurdles and could be worth another chance. Arumun struggled last summer after winning at Hexham a year ago and may need this but Sir Bumble should fitter for his recent reappearance, though is probably better over further. Wasntme may also find this an insufficient test of stamina and chasing newcomer Benny The Swinger was a very moderate hurdler, but Bid Art wouldn't be without a chance on his best form.
