In depth
Verdict
A winner at Beverley, Charles Kingsley was beaten carrying a penalty at Lingfield but steps up in distance for this and can figure. SETTING SAIL also attempts a longer trip but won over 1m2f at Goodwood as a two-year-old and, having missed the whole of last year, Charlie Appleby’s charge gets the vote to make a winning return having been gelded in the interim. Heart Of Soul went close in a maiden at Southwell last time and Motaraabet will know more today having made only a modest debut over today’s trip at Leicester.
