      Verdict

      Per Amore will be a popular choice to score here, with the reappearing Ballycassidy and Rudi Knight expected to figure in the finish as well. Per Amore has quickly taken to his new career, scoring back-to back wins at Huntingdon and more recently over the course and distance. The ex-Irish Flat horse jumped really well on his latest start and and a similar performance should see him hard to beat. Three times successful over timber since coming over, he can match that total over fences and should defy a penalty. Ballycassidy proved a frustrating sort for Alan King who tried everything to get him to win over fences without success. It could be that he does not relish a battle, but maybe the move to Peter Bowen's yard will prove the answer. Rudi Knight went in over the track and trip the time before last but the ground was much softer and he may struggle to repeat the feat here. Per Amore is the one to be on.
