A weak enough second division of this contest, MR KODI looks well-placed to make it back-to-back wins since the resumption of racing. The three-year-old held off the selection for the first division of this contest last time and his modest 2lb rise in the weights suggests he may now be one step ahead of the handicapper. The veteran Deeds not Words offers the next best form and typically runs to his mark. His ease in the weights also suggests he is now being given a chance, while the likes of Knockacurra and Grace Plunkett have previously better form than most at this venue, which should set them in good stead for this contest.
