Verdict

KING OF TONGA ran better than on his return when making the frame at Wetherby 16 days ago and he can take advantage of this drop back in grade to return to winning ways. The main danger could be The Dunkirk Lads, who remains on a workable mark following his C&D success last time, while Gustav Graves also merits consideration.

  1. KING OF TONGA (IRE)
  2. THE DUNKIRK LADS
  3. GUSTAV GRAVES
