In depth

Verdict

KIE has won twice over hurdles for Donald McCain since arriving from Italy and, from his plater's mark, should be good enough under Paul Hanagan. Both of Dew Reward's successes have come in sellers and he looks too high in the weights but Bold Adventure is generally competitive at this level as his seven all-weather victories suggest. Arctic Wings and Sacco D'Oro have been running poorly over timber and have plenty to do in conceding weight to the selection.
