After winning a classified stakes at Chelmsford, FLYING STANDARD continued his upward curve with a third off this mark at Kempton. This is nowhere as near as competitive as that latter contest and Chris Wall’s gelding can return to the winner’s enclosure if handling this surface. Al Jawhra was second over 1m2f at Lingfield last time but tries a new trip, as does Murat Asset. Dame Denali has hinted at ability but races from out of the handicap.
