Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and KING OF THE ROAD appeals as a likely improver for the in-form Ben Pauling team now stepping into handicaps so gets the nod. Chankaya reverts to this sphere on a handy-looking mark having made mistakes on his recent chasing bow at Wincanton and is next on the list ahead of Ryan Potter's new recruit Citizen Jane.
