Verdict

DEMON D'AUNOU showed plenty of ability in his Market Rasen win where he travelled supremely well and he ran well enough last time too at Bangor. Jonjo O'Neill's charge ought to improve further too and is a very interesting runner in his first handicap start. Nicky Henderson's Kayf Grace had smart form a couple of seasons ago and she should step up on her latest run here so she too is respected. Mister Malarky's last win has worked out well and he is of interest now switched to handicaps also.
  1. Demon D'aunou
  2. Kayf Grace
  3. Mister Malarky
