Verdict
Kentucky Kingdom has done all his winning at Chelmsford so far and is raised a further 5lb for last month’s success. LIBERTY WARRIOR (NAP) is less exposed and, having finished with a late flourish to claim second at Salisbury on his handicap debut, he looks the one to side with debuting on the all-weather. Twisted Dreams and Tilsitt have been thereabouts over shorter trips recently while Near Kettering returns to the level having won over hurdles and bumper winner Hackberry placed at Wolverhampton in July.
