Verdict

KNIGHTON showed up well for a long way on his return from 5 months off at Market Rasen recently and is put forward as the answer from the same mark, given he's entitled to strip fitter for the outing and remains relatively unexposed. Calibos and Zaraquelle may also have their best days as hurdlers ahead of them, so they are feared most.
