HAZZARD COUNTY has a few pound to find on official ratings but Laura Pike's 5lb claim brings him into contention and the hold-up performer looks certain to get the race run to suit. A fast pace could see a few these cut each others throats as the headstrong Kakatosi took on Clockmaker at the head of affairs last time when the latter finished third to Loyalty over a mile at Lingfield. The still-improving Amitola is another who likes to lead and The Rectifier attempted to make all when placed in pattern company during the summer. The latter has the best form if he's ready for action, while Nazreef and Treadwell would also benefit from a fast pace.
