Verdict

It’s easy to pick holes in the Kempton form of Adjali but he is still preferred to the other previous chase winner Back On The Lash. They have to give 6lb, however, to two interesting recruits. Interconnected certainly has the scope to make a better chaser than hurdler but THE BULL MCCABE has already won a point-to-point and two hurdles so gets the nod to make a winning start over fences.
