Verdict

KAMSINAS created an excellent impression when making a winning start over hurdles at Worcester 15 days ago, impressing with how he travelled through the race, so he can build on that first effort to score again. Irish-challenger Toto Too also looked a useful prospect when successful on his hurdling debut and is respected, with Act of Authority another to take into account.
