Kingston Hill gelding cost 8,000Euros as a 3yo; half-brother to point/3m chase winner Touchwoodexpress; dam unraced half-sister to bumper/3m hurdle winner Cash And New (dam of smart 2m4f/2m5f hurdler/chaser Oscar Rock); likely all the better for this experience though worth a market check.

Minor promise in maidens; failed to make an impact off opening mark of 98 at Cork in June (2m4f, good); drops in trip, 3lb lower here and probably capable of better but a bit to prove for now.

Verdict

A maiden which may not take much winning and perhaps a good opportunity for KAINSBOURG (nap), whose previous runs have been in stronger maidens. Krak looks a player if settling better, while Baroness Orzy could improve plenty now upped in trip, Letos is considered on the ground, and Locked Box is interesting if the ground doesn’t get too testing.
