Verdict

KITZBUHEL is a progressive sort and should follow up his Southwell maiden victory. He was competitive in a handicap on this surface in October off a 2 lb lower mark and further improvement is likely. Lord Halifax returned from a short break after wind surgery at Kempton in good form and could build on that. My Girl Maggie is consistent and has each-way claims.

  1. KITZBUHEL (USA)
  2. LORD HALIFAX (IRE)
  3. MY GIRL MAGGIE
