In depth
Verdict
Len Lungo's Knockholt is likely to be at short odds to open his account over hurdles in this novices' event. A 90-rated performer on the flat with Sean Woods, the six-year-old has shown enough in three starts to date over timber, including when second to another useful flat recruit Forum Chris at Hexham last month, to suggest he can win a race of this nature. Winning chaser Divet Hill has his first start over the smaller obstacles for two seasons and could be interesting, while In Extremis II has more to do than when winning a handicap here in May. The rest look moderate.
