Verdict

KING BLACK (9) has the most complete profile after scoring at this track last time as a well-supported favourite, and his record around 1m reads well for this assignment. He has already won twice at this track and distance, carries 116lbs and retains Francisco Da Silva, so the last-start win looks a solid platform rather than a one-off. WINNING TREE (7) is the clear danger on current form, having won two of three this season and beaten Bamtori Bambam over 7f last time, though 1m is new to him. O.K. BABY (8) has won his past two, the latest by eight lengths from Chats Khan, and his overall record is strong enough to respect despite also tackling 1m for the first time. SUCCESS COW (11) has the proven track-and-distance piece, a recent win over Port More and weight relief, but last start left him with ground to make up on the sharper winning hopes.
