Keep Kicking won with plenty to spare over track and trip last time. He'd also beaten Honest Strike and Where's Susie at this track earlier although the former is weighted to reverse running on today's better terms. KING'S REQUEST is another recent winner over course and distance having opened his account in good style three weeks ago. Open to further progress over today's distance, Laura Mongan's charge gets the nod to follow-up. Cabuchon scored over 1m4f here earlier in the month but was well beaten on his only previous attempt at 2m.
