Verdict
Kinglami had dropped to a lowly mark when scoring here last month and followed up at Chepstow. Both victories were on soft ground so, if the going remains on the easy side, he'll be thereabouts again. However, the concession of 17lb to another hat-trick seeker, CONCUR, may prove beyond him as the latter won a similar race over the course and distance last month to add to his maiden victory at Ayr. Pat Shanahan sends the lightly-raced Molecule from Ireland and she showed a bit more dash at Naas while Exotic Guest is suited by some give in the ground as he showed from just 3lb lower at Carlisle. El Principe is still 6lb higher than his only victory last summer.
