JEZZA went close when runner-up in a tougher race than this at Kempton last time. That was over 2m but todays' trip is no problem for Karen George's course and distance winner and he can go one better. My Destination was beaten a long way when second at this track on his latest start but still finished ahead of Nolecce while Alpine Mysteries has a shout stepping up in trip. German import Santayana is almost certainly better than she showed on her debut for new connections at Leicester and is bred to stay longer distances.
