This circuit is made for a quick jumping front-runner such as THE KINGS BABY and given how she bolted up last time at Stratford those tactics are sure to be used again although she may face some competition for the lead from Brave Spartacus who only has one run style and that’s fast forward. The field as a whole doesn’t contain that many with sound profile and you have to rather read between the lines to find the dangers although Bocasien Desbois showed last time that he could win something at this level – he would need to repeat that effort though. Paddling has to race from out of the handicap but he’s well weighted on his best form and if he stays his last run puts him in the mix.
