LAUDERDALE KING has taken his form up a notch on his last 2 starts, making it back-to-back wins when scoring with a bit in hand at Listowel, and he is fancied to land the hat-trick. Next best could be Flying Fortress who has gone close at this course the last twice, with Matt Connor and Unfold also considered.
