Verdict
Kalaskadesemilley ran poorly at Lingfield after placing twice at Uttoxeter earlier. KAVANAGHS CORNER was also below par last time at Huntingdon but will be suited by a return to a stiffer track and Richard Johnson takes over the reins – he can recoup losses. Very Live is the only one of these with recent winning form so can’t be ignored and Modeligo won this in 2017, though was only fifth last year. Exmoor Mist is worth considering eased in grade with Lickpenny Larry likely to prove the pick of the remainder.
