SUPREME RULER makes his handicap debut after showing promise in maiden company, finishing steadily despite an error at Fairyhouse previously. Improvement is expected after his break. Killaney King was pretty consistent last season and should strip fitter with his reappearance under his belt, Black Bamboo should also run closer to form this time.

About The Selections
Katie Midwinter
Petit King Put in a good effort in fourth at huge odds when last seen and should be suited by this assignment. Each-way claims
Johnny Ward
San Hilario The headgear seemed to work well at Fairyhouse and that sort of form renders him an obvious contender in a race lacking depth. He looks ready to win for a yard in form

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: A decent pace still shouldn’t detract from the chances of those who race on or near the front end such as Killaney King: Despite a suspicion the pace will be sound, those held up such as Give Him A Chance usually is are still likely to have their work cut out.
Individual Price Hint: Beckistine traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on 3 of its last 5 starts: Imperial Miss traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on 3 of its last 5 starts.
