Verdict
Considering his starting price and inexperience, TABLE BLUFF ran very well behind better-fancied rivals here earlier in the month. He jumped well and though still a maiden but can put that right today with Nico de Boinville taking off a valuable 3lb. El Toreros has been third in both starts to date over fences, though only beat one home at Sedgefield last time. He is also unexposed but the mare Enchanting Smile has already had five runs over the larger obstacles and Nether Stream hasn't improved much for experience and was well behind El Toreros over hurdles at Newton Abbot in June. Apache Dawn has won three times over fences but was beaten 15 lengths when second over 2m here last time.
