Verdict
This has been run four times and every favourite has won though none of them were four-year-olds. KANSAS DU BERLAIS could buck the latter trend as he appeared to find the ground too lively when a short price here last month after a very good run on soft going at Lingfield. Tellmesomethingood was 14 lengths behind in the latter event but Awaythelad's placed efforts at Uttoxeter and Ascot put him in the frame and he was out of his depth in Class 2 company at Kempton. Privatearing was a 250/1 chance when runner-up over 2m5f here last month where he reportedly lost a shoe. He could find this on the short side.
