Verdict
Kanisorn is selected ahead of Devilfishpoker Com and Davidia. A winner of 17 from 35 starts on artificial surfaces in Italy, this could be an easy opportunity for the six-year-old to get off the mark in the UK. The market is nevertheless watched but connections would struggle to find a worse race than this. Devilfishpoker Com is the most likely pace setter. He ran a fair race over two miles on his most recent start on the level but he looks particularly exposed these days. Davidia is a regular at these levels. He has tried to steal races from the front over shorter trips so it will be interesting to see what tactics are tried over this trip and with another front-runner in opposition. Interest drops into this grade for the first time. It would be a major surprise if Cool Isle and Cumae were good enough if previous form is taken into consideration. Not a race to be getting too heavily involved in and if Kanisorn has any ability he should win this.
