In depth
Verdict
Not a bad way to end the card but Kingston Town is going the right way and can send punters home happy from Wolverhampton. Prideway, Shifty and Yorker are all given the thumbs up for consideration for the places if the prices permit. But Kingston Town is the least exposed of this bunch and has already shown that he is capable of holding his own. Jean-Pierre Guillembert is able to claim 3lb for the top weight, which also enhances his claims, so there seems little point in opposing the leading all weather trainer in the finale tonight.
