KAUTO RIKO often keeps much better company than this, including when seeming to excel himself in face of a very stiff task in the Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham 5 weeks ago, and is potentially on a very handy mark back in a handicap up against opposition that are on the decline. Aso has been eased 5 lb since his latest third at Exeter and can place again, with Saint Xavier best of the others.
