Most of these have run here and Koybig has won four times from 32 starts though has a lot to find on official ratings which are headed by SPANISH TENOR, who hasn't won in three starts here. Ado McGuinness' charge has a busy campaign on the Flat behind him having run a dozen times with a victory in a Tipperary claimer his only success but should have enough quality to see off these rivals. Rocky Dreams' victory in a similar race earlier this month came over 6f but Timourid won a track and trip claimer before a fair run in a 7f handicap when just behind the consistent Swiss Army Officer, who has claims here. House Of Kings, who was having his first start for new connections when last in that latter event, would have a chance on his earlier UK and French form.
