7/2
Unreliable type. C&D winner. Latest win at Punchestown in September. Bit below form fourth of 14 in handicap (10/3) at this C&D 55 days ago, slowly away. Others make more appeal from a win point of view.

Fourteenth of 20 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, soft, 250/1) 14 days ago. Decent third over this C&D on latest start in this sphere but others preferred all the same.

Forecasts

Nedita (3/1), Rockbury Lad (7/2), Morning Approach (4/1), Tribal Moon (11/2), Man Is King (11/2), Trishuli River (6/1), Brains (8/1), Si Senior (11/1), Zahee (16/1), Saxon Kingdom (22/1), Star Mind (50/1), Super Over (50/1)

Verdict

A belated and much-deserved first taste of success could be in the offing for MAN IS KING, who put in another very good shift from the front when going down narrowly over C&D last month. Morning Approach scored in good style here last time and while she isn't an obvious type to follow up, the 7-y-o will be a threat off this 9 lb higher mark if in a similar mood. Nedita, also successful in a C&D handicap on the same card in December, is third choice ahead of Trishuli River.
