Can i jump in here, Big Bucks beat punchestown recieving 7lbs (iirc) on soft ground that favours paul nicholls charge, i firmly believe punchestown will reverse this form. However in my opinion neither of these two are the winner, Kasbah Bliss 2nd to the recently retired Inglis Drever in last years World Hurdle has gone on to win a grade 3 flat race in france as well as placing in a class 1 (iirc) last weekend he demolished the field on soft ground that although he can act on, he prefers better (good / gd sf ground) here he showed a tremendous turn of foot, and his trainer Francis Douman admitted that KB needed the run to get in a round of jumping, he will improve for cheltenham and imo he is one of the bankers of the meeting.
Back on topic, Hull kr +8 and Wakefield - 6 my best bets for this round
