Verdict

Eager To Bow ended last season with a victory at Kempton and is only 2lb higher for his return. However, MY KINGDOM makes more appeal as he's been competing over shorter trips in better company so far this season and today's return to 7f can see him back to winning ways. Pategonia may still come good but has returned a losing favourite on his last three outings now while Afkar remains 5lb higher than his only win to date at Yarmouth last year. Cyflymder saves his best for this surface and looks best of the rest.
