Stealth Fighter just prevailed at Beverley on a recent debut but is penalised for that success and the advantage lies with KINGS HIGHWAY. He was beaten less than a length over track and trip last month when clear of the rest and can go one better in the weaker division of this novice race. Pinchpoint showed no progress at Carlisle last time though the soft ground may not have suited but the remainder have fewer excuses for their modest form so Sir Prize won’t need to be anything special to get involved.
