Verdict

KILVERGAN BOY can scrape another course success. Nigel Twiston-Davies has his runners in good form and this course winner should stip fitter for his hurdles run at Worcester last month. Pacco is a fellow course winner and he is handiacpped to strike, a comment that also applies to the strong stayer Sir Peter. Woodlands Genpower runs the track well and is fully respected but his record fresh is not encouraging, so a bigger threat today might be the bottom-weight Wide Receiver, a fellow Towcester winner.
