Verdict

TWINJETS was hugely impressive when landing 2 bumpers back in the spring and is selected to carry on the good work now switching to obstacles. Hullnback also achieved a high level of form in bumpers and looks sure to make the grade over hurdles, while others to take seriously are Irish-raiders An Mhi and Fennor Cross in an interesting race.
