Verdict

THE DEVILS DROP ran well behind a subsequent Graded winner at Kempton last time out and he can register his first win at the fourth time of asking for in form trainer Alan King (8/31). The selection sets the standard on form and is taken to get the better of last seasons dual point-to-point winner Cereal Killer who represents a leading yard on hurdling debut while fellow point-to-point winner Blue Flight can finish third on hurdling debut.
  1. The Devils Drop
