Verdict

BLING KING wasn’t beaten that far when fourth at Beverley recently and drops down a grade for this. He’s preferred to The Dukkerer, who ended a long losing run with a win at Wolverhampton and has been raised 5lb. Midlight ran poorly at Southwell on his first start for Ruth Carr but is capable of much better while Sakhalin Star slips further down the weights looking for his first win since 2015. Mrs Biggs didn’t stay stepped up to 1m4f at Thirsk last time and today’s trip may suit her better.
