Verdict

The drop in trip may enable KACK HANDED to get back to winning ways and he's suggested ahead of Blossom King and Elite Land. Henry Daly doesn't have many runners at this time of year but those that he does run have to be considered closely and there's reason for believing that Kack Handed can leave the form of his run at Bangor behind. He was never in contention that day but this maiden has shown a lot of his best form under similar conditions, is down in the weights and capable of running a big race. Elite Land is one of the least exposed runners in the race having had just the one start over fences to date and it will be interesting to see how he fares in the betting ring but more obvious claims are held by Blossom King who has made the frame on both starts in similar contests and should be competitive on his return. Support for Moneywise would clearly be of interest whilst Chilbury Hill and King's Majesty will also have their supporters but Kack Handed gets our vote.
