MYKINGDOMFORAHORSE can land the finale at the main expense of Theologist and Wester Ross. The selection is holding his form well this year and he put in a good effort to chase home Rockfella at Goodwood. He is upped in trip today but he was not stopping over 1m4f last time and the extra two furlongs today should suit. Theologist has yet to get his head in front but he has gone close and he didn't quite get home over 2m last time. He had previously run well over today's course and distance and a reproduction of that effort would see him in with a big chance. Wester Ross is back on the level after a good run over hurdles last time and he does tend to go well at this track. Drussell disappointed on his handicap debut at Chester earlier in the month but he is unexposed and he had won well on his debut at Wolverhampton. There could be more to come from him, but the vote goes to Mykingdomforahorse.
