Verdict

Autretot is back up in class today and raised 6lb for winning at Newcastle. Stablemate Kharbetation looks better treated and finished closer at Ripon last time while Restive won a Class 6 contest at Hamilton recently and will find this tougher. Five Helmets also scored at the same meeting at Hamilton but over a mile and steps up in distance along with Four Kingdoms. COCKALORUM (NAP) is preferred as he was wearing cheekpieces when winning a maiden race at Leopardstown last year and was having only his second outing for Roger Fell when running well at York last month. Racing off the same mark with the headgear back in place today, he gets the vote.
