Verdict

Lots of these arrive with a question mark against them and it could pay to side with the lightly-raced KING HORSE taking a sizeable step forward now with Nicky Richards and capitalising on a lenient-looking mark. Tigress Lilly arrives in top form and rates a big danger though, while handicap debutant Old Comrades can also play a prominent role.
