Seven Kingdoms (11/4), Minella Forfitness (9/2), Triple Chief (5/1), Moorlands Jack (11/2), Get Back To Me (6/1), Flashman (8/1), Iona Days (14/1), Morgan's Bay (40/1)

Some questionable and out of form types go to post here which you would expect to see around Plumpton rather than Kempton Park. Some of these are falling in the weights but show very little sign of taking advantage and it looks to offer a good opportunity for SEVEN KINGDOMS to follow up his Exeter romp. There are very few other solid options in the race although Moorlands Jack may be capable of piecing together back-to-back runs off a favourable mark with Triple Chief another of similar ilk.
