Verdict
Wait For Me clearly has an engine but made mistakes on his hurdling debut and will need to jump better in this big field. However, POTTERS LEGEND is fancied to make a winning start over timber. Lucy Wadham's string is going great guns and her five-year-old ran a cracker in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham last month that's already worked out well. Camakasi, Fire Ship and Dubawi Light were all decent on the Flat and could go well if taking to hurdles while Church Leap shaped with promise at Kempton and will know more today.
