Verdict
Kajaki won here in April but was only fourth off this mark the following month. Balkalin has disappointed twice since scoring at Kelso in the spring but Malangen runs his best races here. Adamaris was in good form at Market Rasen last month and still has scope but BORN FAMOUS (NAP) has won her last five over fences and hurdles and Harry Cobden, who rode her to victory in a Grade 3 latest, keeps the partnership intact. Beauty To Behold takes a fierce hold and may find others too strong again in the finish.
