Verdict
Dolphin Square carries a double penalty for earlier wins over hurdles but is not out of this with a recent run under his belt. Ascot bumper winner Zyon can also figure returning to action and debuting over timber for Paul Nicholls but KILTEALY BRIGGS has the more recent form. The latter went close in a bumper at Warwick last month and further progress is expected now hurdling on his second outing after wind surgery. Punkawallah ran well at Exeter on his debut over timber while Jeremy Sunshine has joined Colin Tizzard’s yard having won between the flags in Ireland back in May.
