    Verdict

    This is an interesting novice hurdle and Air Guitar, Twelve Paces and Napoleon catch the eye with Twelve Paces the form choice. Air Guitar has run well twice already this season and looks sure to go well again. He finished second on each occasion, looking a little one paced, and he may find the opposition too hot here. Philip Hobbs runs Napoleon, an Irish recruit. He shaped well on the Flat, finishing off with a win at Roscommon, and he is sure to have been well schooled and hails from a yard in form. He must be respected. Twelve Paces won well at Newton Abbot on his debut and then turned in a better performance when chasing home Rimsky last time. The winner has since franked the form and Twelve Paces may turn out to be a step ahead of his rivals.
