Verdict

Tikkinthebox has won over fences on three occasions though is 5lb higher than his most recent success at Newton Abbot. Hurdles winner Jabulani debuts over fences on his first start since March but Irish challenger A PLACE APART won over timber at Downpatrick recently and Gavin Cromwell’s charge is taken to make a winning start over fences. Balibour has yet to win over the smaller obstacles and makes his chasing bow along with Battle Of Ideas and Acaro with the latter pair both preferred on these terms to hurdles winner Way Out West.
