Verdict

VON KROLOCK is having his first start on all-weather since running out a convincing winner at Wolverhampton in the spring so he could be the answer to the finale. Walking On Clouds would be a serious threat if allowed to dictate again, while it will be interesting to see if there is market support for My Mate Kev again.

7	Resumed winning ways with a bit in hand at Wolverhampton in April. Not in the same form back on turf at Leicester next 2 starts 3 months apart but he's entitled to come on for his last run with headgear back on. 1st Pick 7 Von Krolock (Ire) Jockey: Christian Howarth Trainer: James Owen J: Christian Howarth T: James Owen	100	-	-	-	19%
Analysis Resumed winning ways with a bit in hand at Wolverhampton in April. Not in the same form back on turf at Leicester next 2 starts 3 months apart but he's entitled to come on for his last run with headgear back on.
4	Reacted well to the re-fitting of blinkers to win 2 of his last 3 starts, making all over C&D in June and at Wolverhampton 6 weeks ago. Dangerous if allowed the run of things again. 2nd Pick 4 Walking On Clouds (Ire) Jockey: Joey Haynes Trainer: Chelsea Banham J: Joey Haynes T: Chelsea Banham	99	-	-	-	29%
Analysis Reacted well to the re-fitting of blinkers to win 2 of his last 3 starts, making all over C&D in June and at Wolverhampton 6 weeks ago. Dangerous if allowed the run of things again.
5	Successful from a much higher mark at Newmarket last spring but largely disappointing since, failing to justify support the last twice. Has since undergone a breathing operation and it will be interesting to see if there's confidence behind him again. 3rd Pick 5 My Mate Kev Jockey: Marco Ghiani Trainer: Chris Dwyer J: Marco Ghiani T: Chris Dwyer	95	-	-	-	34%
Analysis Successful from a much higher mark at Newmarket last spring but largely disappointing since, failing to justify support the last twice. Has since undergone a breathing operation and it will be interesting to see if there's confidence behind him again.
