      Verdict

      ROMAIN DE SENAM won a hurdles race in France back in April and has subsequently joined Paul Nicholls. He may well be good enough in this as none of today's rivals have looked like winning yet. Cahill finished closer last time but was still beaten a long way in third as was Albert Herring at Fontwell on his hurdling debut. The Coffee Hunter was placed on the Flat in France in April and hurdling newcomer Woofie is rated higher on the level than Ventura Castle, tailed off at Newton Abbot last time.
