In depth
Verdict
Cameron Bridge has some excellent hurdle form in the book and will have been well schooled by his shrewd trainer. He is the TEAMtalk selection having shown he can handle lively ground. Yanns has shown in the past that he runs well fresh and his trainer has an excellent record at this track. With his current form up with the best of them the gelding should run well on his chase debut. Duke Of Buckingham has been showing up well on the gallops and there was much to like about his debut over fences 15 days ago. If stepping up on that effort he should go close. Henrietta Knight has her horses running well and her lightly-raced hurdler Zaffamore looks a chasing type. He may just need this outing but market support would be significant.
