In depth
Verdict
Kick On Kick On has returned a losing favourite the last twice and finished behind runner-up Zulu Zander at Lingfield last time. Agent Shiftwell won at Sandown during the summer but returns to the all-weather 4lb higher while Another Angel drops back down in distance after placing over 6f here. SHOW ME A SUNSET failed to land the odds upped to 6f at Newcastle but had gone close over track and trip before that and James Fanshawe’s charge gets another chance with headgear applied for his handicap debut.
