Kids Inheritance gets the confident vote here with Spring Margot and Arresting rating the main dangers. The selection would have won last time off this mark but for falling two out. He again has conditions to suit and off the same mark he will be hard to beat. Spring Margot has been running in hunter chases of late without success but returns to handicapping off what looks a fair mark and he should be watched in the market but he would not want much more rain. Arresting is another worthy of respect on his best form but he is often let down by his jumping and at likely odds he looks worth taking on. Of the remainder, Hollows Mill is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with, while Adolphus won well last time but will find this harder under his penalty and with this in mind for the winner we return to Kids Inheritance in the hope that he puts in a fluent round of fencing.
