Campli has shown promise in four starts in bumpers and again first time in a hurdle race last time but he may not have the pace to cope with Lodgician, who gets the vote with Guerilla rated the best of the remainder. The selection has shown ability in all three starts over hurdles and looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to open his account over timber on his return coming here on the back of recent spins on the flat. Kawacatoose could be of interest first time over hurdles for Ferdy Murphy, while a market move for another hurdling newcomer Frogs' Gift would be of interest. Stoneferry has given little cause for optimism so far and of more interest may be Richard Guest's Guerilla, who has been running with credit in handicaps of late. Lodgician looks to have been found a soft race though and is taken to open his account.
