Verdict
C’MON KENNY made a winning debut last year when landing a bumper. Successful over 1m2f on the Flat at Sandown subsequently, he’ll stay this far and returned to action with a third at Wolverhampton last month. Baileys Derbyday newer threatened when placed over a similar trip here recently but Beat The Breeze and Neverbeen To Paris have form over the distance with the former debuting for a new yard. Arabescato is best over further so Genesius is preferred of the remainder.
