Despite a 0-3 record on the AW the dominance that KING OF THE SAND showed when winning last time out at Brighton is hard to ignore and it’s no surprise to see him turned out quickly under a 5lb penalty in a bid to follow up. He may not have things all his own way though with five-time C&D winner Star Ascending bidding to add to his tally here although he wouldn’t have as much room for improvement as Gary Moore’s charge. Lost History has work to do with the principals on previous form but a strong gallop would see him in a better light while Irish contender California Lad would attract attention if the market vibes were strong.
