KINGSMERE absolutely skated up in a much stronger contest at Cheltenham last week and should comfortably defy his penalty if in the same mood with Jake Greenall's claim halving the extra. Midnight Cataria may be the danger as she's a dual course winner and ran well in a valuable mares' handicap at Newbury last month. Too Generous could improve for the fitting of blinkers and One Conemara is better than he's shown so far this season but Church Field has questions to answer now while this is probably too far for Dragon's Den. Decimus is back in form and has place claims again however.
