KARISMA KING was having only his third start over fences when coming here a couple of weeks ago and battling on to beat Scooter Boy a length. The runner-up is a couple of pounds better off but Sue Smith's charge looks to have more scope and can confirm the form and complete a quick double. The Clock Leary, who has moved stables, has been struggling though in better company than this and a change of scenery could bring about a revival. Lemon's Gent is inconsistent but perfectly capable of a big run at his best with ground conditions in his favour.
