Good to see a big field for this handicap and I really like KILBEG KING to continue his momentum. He has won 3 from 4 under Rules including two over hurdles and promises to do even better up in trip again here. He won a point by 8 lengths over 3 miles so looks to have stamina assured and now into handicap company could easily improve again. He looks all about stamina and should relish this test. Obviously quite a few dangers probably headed by Knowsley Road who is favourite at the time of writing. He impressed winning twice at Chepstow and still looked like he needed to strengthen up when third to Grey Dawning at Warwick. If he improves again then he should give the selection most to think about. Brinkley has been poor the last twice but he has dropped to a workable mark as a result and following a wind op he might prove best of the rest.

Kilbeg King - 1pt @ 9/2
