This looks a very good opportunity for KING ROLAND to get back to winning ways. At the time of writing, his Newbury conqueror Son Of Camas is joint second-favourite for the Grade 1 Tolworth Hurdle at Sandown. There was only 1L in it at the Berkshire track, and Harry Fry's gelding meets nothing that has yet shown that ability in this field. Thunderstruck has the ability to pick up some prize money, though Buckhorn George might improve enough to give the selection most to do. Grey Getaway is not written off.
