| Left previous form well behind when justifying support here (7f) on handicap bow/return 16 days ago. Well on top at the finish that day and will prove suited by this longer trip, so good chance he can defy 4 lb rise. | ||||||||

KINGOFTHECARNIVAL justified market support in good style on handicap bow here so can defy a 4 lb rise with the step up in trip expected to suit. Norcross Brow is worth another chance down in class so is next best ahead of the returning Secret Testimony. |
