Walked over
Sandown regular Darebin hasn’t been at his best lately and would prefer some cut in the ground. He also likes to race at the head of affairs and that should suit KING CNUT. Chris Gordon’s charge won over a longer trip here in October and having placed at Exeter on his latest start, gets the vote to come out best in this match.
Darebin (GER) 8-1 (11-7) 6th of 7, 28 3/4l behind Lillington (11-12) at Newbury 2m hcp (3) gs in Mar.
King Cnut (FR) 25-1 (10-7) 3rd of 7, 6 1/2l behind Darcy Ward (11-7) at Exeter 2m 3f hcp (3) gd in Apr.
