Formscan - Will Knott was pitched into a Grade 2 on his hurdling bow and understandably came up well short, but his solid bumper form entitles him to a place high on the shortlist in a race of this nature. Even so, he is passed over in favour of IMAGINARIUM, who was a smart handicapper on the Flat in Ireland and goes jumping for Lucinda Russell. Keep Presenting Max and Traveling Soldier in mind too.
