Verdict
The veteran Cousin Khee has looked a rejuvenated figure this year and landed a double over 2m2f here with a recent defeat of Ruler Of The Nile. He also beat Lady Makfi earlier but today’s drop back in trip may prove a bigger hindrance than carrying a penalty and preference is for THE RESDEV WAY (NAP). Philip Kirby’s charge returned a convincing winner over course and distance last week when beating Katie Gale and a line through the latter gives him the beating of Cousin Khee on collateral form.
