Verdict

Galiotto will go close if reproducing his latest third at Kempton, while Henry Holmes is only 4lb higher than when scoring over C&D on his penultimate start and is another leading contender. However, the vote goes to WILLIAM'S WAY. His recent poor form has seen him slip down the weights, but he could well bounce back here as his last five victories have been in amateur races with Chris Martin on board. Irish import Marching Orders is worth noting on his first start for new connections.
