Verdict

Royal Rationale could hardly have won with more ease when taking a novice hurdle at Sedgefield last month but this is tougher back in a handicap today and it is hard to get away from recent Fakeham scorer KING'S MAJESTY, who is preferred to another last time out winner First Point. Nicky Henderson's gelding was good value for his Ludlow success last week but a 7lb penalty for that success makes life tougher for the five-year-old and he may have to settle for minor honours today. Elaala has been running well of late but she may now be a shade high in the weights, while Luna Landing is fit from the flat and rates a bigger threat than Kanonkop, who probably needs even more help from the handicapper. The vote then goes to the Andrew Hales-trained King's Majesty, who has looked much improved of late with convincing wins at Plumpton and Fakenham and he is taken to make it three on the bounce here.
