Verdict
Kendergarten Kop has now won two of only three starts this year having scored at Lingfield last month and is raised a further 3lb. But better is expected from CHORAL MUSIC back on the all-weather having won off a higher mark over course and distance in the past and it could be her turn again today in a poor handicap. Deleyll was winning over longer trips last year but Cashel is back on a winning mark. Rusper's Gift makes his handicap debut on his belated reappearance having been gelded since last in action.
