Kadount can land this; possibly at the main expense of Snob Wells and Master Brew. The last named has fared well between the flags lately and will have his faithful supporters behind him again today. He does need to up the ante slightly though, as this is a tougher task than he has faced for a while. Snob Wells has been very lightly raced over the last few years but has claims on the best of his form. His owner/trainer takes a handy 7lb off his back and it would hardly be a bolt from the blue were he to post a big effort. However, Kadount has more ticks in the right boxes than any of his opponents and, even though his chance is likely to mirrored by skinny odds, he looks the likeliest winner in this company.
