Formscan - Turpin Gold merits respect having got off the mark at Stratford last month, although a penalty for that success will make his life tougher this afternoon. With that in mind, preference is for BARN OWL, who was useful on the Flat when at his best and he should not be underestimated first time over hurdles. Kingston Sunflower and Maxcel also make the shortlist.
