Verdict

CLIFFCAKE produced a career best as he made a successful debut for Roy Bowring at Wetherby last month and, given he had a bit to spare, he's worth a chance to follow up after going up only 4 lb. Katie's Kitten is two from two over C&D, so she's an obvious danger along with the relatively consistent Kenstone.

  1. CLIFFCAKE (IRE)
  2. KATIE'S KITTEN
  3. KENSTONE (FR)
