Verdict

YANWORTH looks the one to be on in this sporting the J P McManus colours. He was a very decent sort in bumpers last season, winning twice before finishing second in a Listed race at Ascot before his fourth in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham. He'll be very hard to beat if translating that form to hurdles as most of the opposition here looks limited in ability. Welsh Shadow is a possible exception as he beat a previous winner in a Wetherby bumper in March but Royal Salute has a bit to prove now. Newcomers Antiphony and Chantecler look best of the rest.
