Kingaroo turned in a poor effort at Southwell last time but has claims here judged on his earlier win over a shorter trip at Kempton, while Dandarrell usually plies his trade on the Fibresand but is not without a chance if taking to the Polytrack. Broughtons Paradis, Colonel Sherman and Profit's Reality are all hard to win with these days but STORM HAWK has recently discovered the winning habit. After waiting nearly two years to get his head in front, he's now won two of his last three starts, both over C&D, and Pat Eddery's charge may not have finished yet.
