Another wide-open affair with a big field, so keep an eye out for any market moves, but KISHA KING can end a hat-trick of seconds here and gets our support ahead of Two Miles West and Gift Of The Gods. Kisha King is a small horse with a great attitude, and is the handy type that can do well here, and he deserves a win for the way he's been going. He'll get the trip, and having been beaten by less than a cumulative eight lengths in his last three outings, sets a decent standard. He's also been a regular winner in points. Gift Of The Gods is likely to be raced prominently throughout; placed on her chase debut last time out, she's also won between the flags, and is less exposed than Kisha King. Two Miles West has flattered to deceive and not been the most straightforward, but responded in the past to the cajoling of Tony McCoy. A bit different though in a conditionals' contest, although Ritchie McLernon's growing in stature and reputation. Tim Vaughan's September Moon can be relied on to perform well, but usually finds one or two too good. It's not a race to be lumping on anything, but we like the claims of Kisha King.
