In depth

Verdict

KINGSON scored over track and trip on last month’s seasonal debut and placed in a higher grade back here last time when ahead of Iron Sheriff. Richard Fahey’s charge gets another chance racing off the same mark back at this level. Le Bayou beat Violette Szabo by only a short-head here earlier though both have been well beaten since and Act Of Magic is preferred having won at Ripon on his penultimate start. Dandy's Angel looks best of the rest.
