Verdict

Olly Murphy's LIRION has shaped well in finishing runner-up on both starts in bumpers, most recently here, and is taken to make a winning start over hurdles at the chief expense of Dropematthestation who has had a breathing operation since his good Doncaster third. Both Bohemond Antioch and Penn Avenue also have the form to play a part.
