Verdict
King Of The Moors won well at Musselburgh last time and has won two of his last three starts but Richard Guest's gelding has a penalty to carry for that latest win in claiming company so he looks worth taking on in this better race with preference for MAGROOM, who gets the verdict ahead of Aggravation. David Elsworth's gelding did not seem to take to hurdles at Market Rasen when last seen in August and has to be considered back on the flat off a career low mark. Andrew Balding's Transfer is less exposed than most of these after just nine outings but he needs to improve to get involved at the finish. James Fanshawe's Margarita is similarly lightly raced but she remains a maiden and looks best watched as does Walter Swinburn's similarly unexposed Ibbetson. The safest option looks to be Magroom, who has shown improved form for Ron Hodges of late having only been out of the first two once in his last six starts and he can go one better than last time.
