Verdict
KIMMINS should find the good ground to her liking having placed in an all-weather bumper at Kempton last time. She looks the one to beat in this with Credo debuting under Rules having won a point-to-point in Ireland last year. Grangeclare Knight finished closer at Newbury without looking like winning while the newcomers Word To The Wise and Spitfire Girl are both related to bumper winners.
