In depth
Verdict
Kilcummin is penalised for winning at Fontwell and one of the hurdling newcomers may take advantage. Paul Nicholls has sent out two of the last three winners of this and LIARI won a maiden race in the Aga Khan colours on the Flat in France earlier this year for Jean-Claude Rouget. Whispering Royal is another maiden winner on the level and is preferred to Star Of Sussex while Inside Man is from a family of jumps winners in France but makes his racecourse debut.
