    Verdict

    KANGAROO POINT bids for a four-timer raised only 3lb. He separated wins at Kempton with a six-length victory over track and trip and Ian Williams’ charge can continue winning ways. Russian Rumour won over 1m6f here in November but is 7lb higher on her return while Thawry was no match for the winner when runner-up here last month. Smart Lass has been hurdling without success and has won three times at Musselburgh on the Flat.
