Kondratiev Wave went close over a longer trip at Windsor recently and Mobarhin has been in good form over shorter trips on the all-weather. Verreaux Eagle won off a higher mark at Kempton last autumn while Kendergarten Kop saves his best for this track and won on this card last year before finding PORTERINTHEJUNGLE (NAP) too good here in August. The latter included three course wins in last season’s four-timer and may prove the one to side with back at this venue.
