Verdict

This step up in trip should suit LION KINGDOM, who didn't get the best of runs when fourth on his return/handicap debut at Newmarket during the spring and he remains with potential. Intricacy is due to go up 3 lb for his recent Ffos Las second and is feared most ahead of Perfect Thunder and Fantasy Believer.

  2. INTRICACY
  3. PERFECT THUNDER
