Forecasts

Tazaman (4/1), Knight Of Kings (4/1), Wadacre Gogo (5/1), Sophosc (13/2), Spy Legend (8/1), Mr Zee (11/1), Adrastus (11/1), Letter At Dawn (12/1), Scherbobalob (16/1), Htilominlo (18/1), Montaqem (28/1), Mrs Meader (40/1), Busted Ice (40/1), Largo Bay (50/1)

KNIGHT OF KINGS was nicely clear of the rest when finding only a well backed subsequent winner of Sir Mark Prescott too good at Lingfield last month and he must give it a good go from the same mark. This is a strong race for the grade though, with old-rivals Tazaman and Wadacre Gogo a couple of potential threats.
