KING OF FASHION has been in good form at his local track Ayr this winter and doesn’t stray far from home soil here. Ian Duncan’s gelding has a penalty to carry but little to beat and should return to winning ways. Pinch Of Ginger was well behind the selection at Ayr in January and didn’t fare much better when only beating one home at Sedgefield. Chanceiton is also comfortably held and He Knows My Name showed little under Rules first time around.
