Verdict
James Best had to ride Prettylittlething right out to the line to score over 3m at Towcester nine days ago and she may be worth opposing here under a penalty. Kapgarde King makes his chasing bow but has yet to show much over timber. Replacement Plan has only been placed once in 10 starts over the larger obstacles but BOHER LAD has won a point-to-point so should take to fences. He's been second twice over hurdles this summer and is only 3lb higher.
