KARISMA KING has yet to win but was in the lead at this trip over 2m5f at Wetherby and only faded from the last so he can finally lose his maiden tag. Ashkoun is also a maiden over hurdles but has been running in slightly higher grade and ran well over this trip on heavy going last time. L Frank Baum didn't run well at Towcester last time but his earlier close second at Huntingdon puts him in the picture while Old Magic would have to be considered on his very easy victory here last month though he ran moderately at Chepstow a few days later. Lost In Newyork had been chasing before a better run over timber at Market Rasen though a career strike-rate of 1-40 is off-putting. Bourne hasn't been running well though in better company and will appreciate the drop in class.
