Kings Cavalier can win this moderate seller at the expense of Great Composer and Deserted Prince. The selection is winless after sixteen starts but is having the blinkers applied for the first time. He has shown a little promise in sellers and claimers in the past which at his best gives him chance and if the blinkers can sharpen him up a little more then he is one to stay on the right side of. Great Composer has limited ability but could still be an improver with only six runs under his belt. He ran a personal best at Brighton last time out when an eye catching third to Renegrade so any market moves should be noted. Deserted Prince did manage to win a seller at Windsor back in October of last year but since then has struggled in similar races, but with this being such a poor race he has to be noted. So for the winner we return to Kings Cavalier.
