FIRE KING won last year's renewal and can effectively race off a lower mark today with David Parkes' allowance taken into account - he may come good again. Berrahri has been winning in the snow at St Moritz but Jackpot scored over track and trip in January and Warbond keeps threatening to win with actually doing so. Welsh Inlet and Katmai River are others capable of winning at this lowly level on their day.
