Verdict

DOWN TO THE KID hasn't looked back since dropping back to this 7f trip and is fancied to overcome another 2 lb rise in the weights to garner a fourth C&D victory of 2026. Stablemate Legal Reform also arrives in fine fettle and can go well too in his bid for a sixth C&D success. Eminency and Diamondonthehill also need factoring into this competitive handicap.
