Sir Michael Stoute's yard has not been firing in it's usual amount of winners so far but KINYRAS could prove good enough on his reappearance. He was only beaten a head over today's trip at Bath last September and should come into his own this season. Autobahn was going well before hanging badly and taking his apprentice for a tour of Newcastle on his debut. Ahmed Ajtebi should provide stronger handling here, while O Ma Lad steps up in trip after going close over a mile at Lingfield in October and has claims. What's The Point appears the first choice of Walter Swinburn's newcomers on jockey bookings and Oneiric is worth noting for the stable that won this last year.
