Verdict
Hannah Just Hannah won a bumper here two years ago and has shown promise over hurdles. She could be a factor with her mares' allowance but THE OUTLAW is probably the one to beat dropping back to 2m after his latest second over further at Warwick. Amber Spyglass ran out on his hurdling debut at Plumpton in October so has a bit to prove and so has Flat winner Putting Green, who finished tailed off at Kempton earlier this month.
