Kevin Brogan is a rising star among the jumping ranks and gets the leg-up here on Miami Present. The top weight has a decent chance in a race like this if in the mood. But OUT FOR JUSTICE should be approaching peak fitness and is now 9lb lower than when third over 3m1f at Wincanton a year ago so gets the nod, though Calin Du Brizais has also slipped down the ratings and Dutch Canyon is another with a squeak. Furius De Ciergues placed over 3m here in February and was second recently at Newcastle but stamina is a major concern for Kapsize.
