In depth

Verdict

TORNADO BOB was beaten 15 lengths by Kid Cassidy on his hurdling debut at Newbury but the winner is held in high regard and a repeat of that performance would probably see Donald McCain's runner go one better here. Herdsman will be a danger as he's sure to have had plenty of schooling, though it was disappointing that he couldn't confirm Aintree bumper form with Charminster at Haydock last month. Wood Yer is open to improvement but was beaten a long way when last of two finishers in a little race at Perth and more interesting is Jan Jandura, who was second in a bumper over this trip at Roscommon in May and has won over 3m between the flags.
