Verdict

WHO DARES WINS went down with all guns blazing against Master Tommytucker on his fencing bow at Kempton. He jumped well and this useful Flat and hurdles winner should go one better here with a repeat effort. Not Never beat De Plotting Shed in a chase at Fontwell back in June but it was only a seller he landed over timber at Taunton last month. Kings Walk hasn’t run since March but has plenty of experience over fences and could figure if fully fit following wind surgery.
