Verdict
OFFICER HOOLIHAN is penalised for an earlier win at Carlisle but ran well enough when third over a longer trip here back in May. Thepremierbroker has shown little in either start over hurdles and the rest make their debut over timber. Bach De Clermont made a winning start with victory in a point-to-point last year while Apasionado won a bumper at Market Rasen last month. Atomix is another bumper winner who could go well while Get Rhythm is a half-brother to a couple of winners over timber.
