Verdict

Low Profile hasn’t won on the Flat in more than three years but there are races to be won at this level over hurdles judged on a debut fourth at Market Rasen when only a neck behind the much more experienced Art Man. However, KENSINGTON ART should appreciate a drop back to 2m on this stiff track and can finally get his head in front over timber at the fifth attempt with Who's The Guv'nor turning in a shocker last time.
