Verdict

KING'S HAND is far from straightforward, often slowly into stride and a keen-going sort, but he has been in fine form at Lingfield of late and looks the one to beat on his course debut. This is just his second start for the Joseph Parr stable, and Luke Morris is back in the plate having won on the gelding two runs ago. Seventy has also been doing well at Lingfield and should be in the mix once again, while Muy Muy Loco warrants respect off his light weight.

Top Tip: King's Hand (1)
Watch out for: Seventy (6)

Several to consider in this and it's the top one KING'S HAND who appeals most. It took him a while to come good for Sir Mark Prescott, eventually winning at Lingfield in January, and he ran right up to form on his stable debut back there last time. Up slightly in trip and changing venue, he can defy top weight although Seventy is progressive himself and should prove suited to the step back up in trip. He's the danger although Tortured Soul remains on a competitive mark and has the assistance of Billy Loughnane now.
