Verdict
Kisumu is 7lb better off than when third behind WOT A SHOT here last month but Nicky Richards’ charge has benefited from the switch back to hurdles and can record a third course victory. Subsequent Cartmel third Novo Dawn is held on that run but Firstymini was also third over course and distance last month and the winner went in again at Uttoxeter last week. Flat winner Pinotage might need this while Maoi Chinn Tire hasn’t shown much this year and isn’t getting any younger.
