KINGFAST looked right back on track for Fergal O'Brien when scoring at Market Rasen only three days ago and is hard to oppose as he escapes a penalty for that conditional jockeys' event. Rocambolas showed the benefit of a hood when getting off the mark at the first attempt for Ben Pauling at Uttoxeter and is next on the list. Getaman appeals as the pick of the rest for place purposes now back hurdling.
