In depth

Verdict

KALIMANTAN (NAP) easily picked off the front-running Vertueux at Chepstow last week and can confirm that form, despite a penalty. The four-year-old should also be too good for Worcester third Hollywood All Star and the returning Ullswater. Jawahal Du Mathan's jumping has gone to pieces but Unefille De Guye could be interesting with blinkers replacing her usual hood.
