Race preview
Useful Flat performer CAMPAIGN TRAIL made a seamless transition to hurdling when scoring at Doncaster last month, on what was also his first start for the Kim Bailey team. The son of Mastercraftsman wouldn't appear to have much more on his plate under a penalty here, and he can find improvement to go in again. Mr Mistoffelees was no slouch on the level either and it will be interesting to see how he fares in the betting on his NH debut, although point-to-point winner Idaho Valley might be the bigger threat.
