Stepped up on his seasonal debut when finishing 1L second in a handicap chase over 3m5f at Warwick (soft) earlier this month. Interesting runner racing off a 1lb higher mark today.

Appeared to appreciate the step up to 4m when making all to win at Hexham (heavy) earlier this month. Raised 3lb for that success and is an interesting runner today.

Had wind surgery prior to winning impressively on heavy ground off a 10lb lower mark at Wetherby over 3m last time out. Tongue tie worn that day is retained and the visor returns for this contest.

Progressive chaser in 2016 and returned to form when finishing third over an extended 2m7f at Chepstow (soft) recently. Has placed over this trip in the past and is well handicapped on her old form.

Beaten a neck when finishing runner-up over an extended 3m5f at Bangor (heavy) last month and ran well to finish fourth over the same trip subsequently. Interesting runner int his contest.

Chasing a hat-trick following two wins at Warwick most recently on soft ground over 3m5f earlier this month. Had Muckle Roe back in second on that occasion and has to defy a 6lb rise in the weights today.

Forecasts

Streets Of Promise (4/1), Talk Of The South (4/1), Zerachiel (9/2), Muckle Roe (5/1), Kilcullen Flem (6/1), Ckalco Des Loges (10/1), Blameitalonmyroots (10/1), Cloudy Too (11/1), Bassarabad (16/1), Milborough (25/1)

Verdict

KILCULLEN FLEM showed his liking for a stamina test when winning at Hexham last time out and with trainer Phil Kirby in good form (4/20) at present he can follow up that success by taking the concluding event on the card. Muckle Roe has run well at this venue in the past and can finish runner-up today while Streets Of Promise, well handicapped on her form of a couple of seasons back can finish third.
  1. Kilcullen Flem
