Verdict

The form of KNIGHT DESTROYER'S emphatic soft-ground win at Chepstow on his handicap debut could hardly have worked out better and, even allowing for a 9lb rise, he could take some stopping on the forecast ground. Roger Charlton's one-time Derby entry, Petitioner, may give the selection most to think about if able to translate his promising AW form to the turf whilst Intellect is also a potential threat stepping up in trip.
