KING OF TONGA hasn't been at his best this year, but he keeps edging down the weights as a result and a chance is taken on him to gain his first victory of the campaign. The very useful 5-lb claimer Ray Dawson is booked, and he can bounce back from a below-par run here on Thursday. Ascension looks the main danger following his recent Newmarket success, ahead of Harrison Point and National League.
