2/5

Kodiac gelding who made a winning start to his career in 1m Southwell maiden last month. Spared a hard race having been set a stiff task in the Solario Stakes 3 weeks ago and he retains plenty of potential at this sort of level.

Kodiac City (2/5), Playing Card (11/4), Donegan (17/2), Vestre Moon (18/1), Bizzo Flavin (25/1), Status Symbol (50/1), True Impact (50/1), Smash Royale (50/1), Tarn Hows (125/1)

KODIAC CITY found the Group 3 Solario Stakes too much but had previously created a good impression at Southwell and back down in class, is fancied to defy a penalty. Newcomers will surely offer most resistance, with Playing Card and Donegan perhaps the pick of them.
