Verdict
Another maximum field of moderate performers. Knightsbridge King has looked something of a doubtful stayer in the past, but with the drying ground putting less of an emphasis on stamina he has every chance in this. He ran well enough on his only previous attempt here when chasing home the long odds on Dream With Me and a repeat of that would be good enough Tyne has been a major disappointment since winning her bumper and probably didn't achieve that much when runner-up to Roman King at Uttoxeter recently. She looked a hard ride that day and may do better over this longer trip. Magical Day is a tough filly, and even though she is of limited ability, she cannot be left out calculations in this.
