Several have recent form over track and trip including Classy Al, who won here a fortnight ago and is preferred to stablemate Rory. Dick Datchery also scored at the same fixture when finally taking advantage of a slide down the weights but MONSIEUR KODI gets another chance. He’s improved for being gelded and won at Carlisle before beaten a neck over track and trip last week. Kilconquhar’s yard has won the last two renewals and he’s not out of this while both Min Till and Hollis Brown makes their handicap debuts.
