In a very modest race, Mighty Kitchener looks the best option. Mighty Kitchener's maiden form, not least his Kempton third two runs ago, rates in the mid 50s and, in a race that lacks strength, that is good enough to be given a solid shout here. Frith was rated in the low 100s back in 2004 but has been very lightly raced since, However, this race will not take a lot of winning. From here, though, we are scratching ourt heads for dangers that can be given strong claims, although maybe Scaramoushka is open to some improvement. Once again, though, the vote goes to Mighty Kitchener.
