Arian receives a useful allowance and if cheekpieces can produce a bit extra then she may be good enough. However, KINGS MONARCH won his point-to-point on good ground and he does not have to improve much on his efforts in the mud to play a major role here. Lad Of Luck has been in need of the experience over hurdles, but enters calculations on his bumper form and given the likelihood of further improvement.
