Kalani King made a promising debut at Newbury in March and something was clearly amiss when he only beat one home at Chepstow subsequently. Anthony Honeyball's gelding should be a factor here while Hare In A Round, Nice To Have and What A Good Night are all newcomers to note in the betting. Jax Teller has finished fourth in both starts and could also figure but BRASSICK looked a nice prospect when comfortably beating subsequent hurdles winner Saints And Sinners at Wetherby in the spring and can defy a penalty on his return.
