Verdict

KILBREE KID (NAP) may well still be improving and though Bless The Wings is 4lb better off for a length-and-a-quarter beating here last month, Tom George's eight-year-old can confirm the form as he's proven on fast ground whereas Gordon Elliott's charge has never won on anything quicker than good to soft. Harrys Whim went close at Market Rasen last time but struggles to stay this far. Maggio is another who would have preferred an easier surface but is still preferred to the returning Organisedconfusion and Problema Tic, who looks to have lost the plot.
