In depth

Verdict

A multiple winner over hurdles and fences, KANGAROO COURT won a maiden at this track on his all-weather debut in January. Fit from a third over timber in March, there should be more to come from Emma Lavelle's charge back on the level. Knightly Escapade ended last year with victory at Goodwood and he's another open to improvement while Iron Condor went close at Folkestone last month and has claims on that form. Kempton winner Star Commander was fancied to make a winning comeback at Windsor and only failed by a length while Sand Skier ended a long losing run at Kempton in March and is just 3lb higher today.
