Verdict

Kingsholm returned to winning ways at Wolverhampton when racing over the minimum trip for the first time but another recent winner in EVASIVE POWER (NAP) is preferred. The latter bounced back to form with a convincing defeat of the in-from Swiss Pride over course and distance last month and can go in again. Spurofthemoment can also figure back over today’s trip and makes more appeal than Strong Power.
