Killala Quay is down to a most attractive mark if he can get his act together and it will be interesting to see if there's any market support for him on the forecast better ground. Keep and eye on him, likewise Capard King for a yard which may just be about to strike form. He has won around here and his last three runs have been creditable so the O'Neill inmate is one to consider carefully. The Fresh Prince returns after wind surgery but we'll go with STEPS AND STAIRS who has gone well on both starts since joining his new yard, has a course and distance win to his name and receives weight all round. Captain Mowbray is a solid each-way shout off his current mark.
