      Verdict

      Without a win over hurdles in 12 previous attempts, Leanna Ban is worth taking on on his return from a lay-off having won twice over fences in May. BON ENFANT made a winning start over hurdles in a conditionals' event at Fontwell last month and he looks the one to beat as he escapes a penalty for that success. Dakota Grey and Airebridge have both been well beaten in bumpers and What A Game makes his debut under Rules having finished runner-up in a point-to-point back in April.
