A losing favourite on his first couple of starts this year, Always Eager finally got off the mark at Wolverhampton in April. He's difficult to predict but King Of Paradise looks sure to go well again having won on his handicap debut over C&D last month on only his fourth start. The latter will still have his work cut out to get the better of FINE ALTOMIS, however, as Michael Dods' charge scored by over four lengths in soft ground at Musselburgh last Friday and can shrug off a penalty with a similar performance. Only Orsenfoolsies continues to rise in the weights without winning but still looks best of the rest.
