NEAR KETTERING has started to find his form once more and, given that his yard has started to fire in the winners, this could be another piece of good placement from 'Team Murtagh'. The lightly raced four-year-old posted a sound effort in defeat at Leopardstown on Thursday and, given that he turns out so quickly after his near miss, the hint is taken that big run is expected. Konig Hall has form in the past which brings him into the argument, but as is the case with several others, he lacks the consistency to be given a solid recommendation to make the frame. Therefore, it could pay to side with Nanabad,/b> and Less Of That as the best alternatives.
- Near Kettering
- Nanabad
- Less Of That
