Verdict

Danetime Lord has enjoyed a fruitful campaign on the all-weather over the winter but he is opposed today with Kabis Amigos selected ahead of Flying Bantam. Kabis Amigos has the plum draw in this contest and he comes here in good heart after a string of consistent efforts. This is his optimum trip and with his stable in good form he should be hard to beat. Flying Bantam is another that is well-drawn and he is another that hails from a yard that are in good form. However, he was well beaten by our selection last time and on these terms there is no reason why the placings should be reversed this afternoon. Danetime Lord has never won on the turf before but he has run well on it in the past. However, he does not have a good draw today and he may be worth taking on. Khetaab is another with a good draw and he could go well at a price but for the winner we are happy to stick with Kabis Amigos.
