Dual winner over fences including here (2m4f, good to soft); 5lb lower than when second of six over hurdles at Stratford (2m6f, good) in May, but well held in both subsequent outings; stable also runs Catalan King. |

Has won four points, but 0-20 under rules (12 over fences); best recent run when second over 2m3f at Fontwell in March (heavy); quite interesting with visor replacing cheekpieces on stable debut. |

Has very mixed record this season but ran well and looked the likely winner for a long way before weakening into third over C&D (heavy; just behind Mister Murchan) last month; 2lb lower today; can't rule out. |

11st 6lb |
Two chase wins wins at 2m1f (good to soft and soft) in early 2024; back on latest winning mark as a result of some lesser efforts, in cheekpieces last twice, but has something to prove at present. |

8th Nov 2023 Good To Soft 2m 4f 68y Class 5 |
10st 13lb |
Following wind surgery he was a fair fourth over hurdles on his reappearance at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) in September; however, he has a patchy profile nowadays and this ex-Flat performer was an early faller on his sole chase start back in April 2022. |

10st 8lb |
Pulled up in consecutive chases in the autumn and again when reappearing over hurdles last month; now 0-19 under all codes and has a lot to prove but still worth a glance in the betting; cheekpieces refitted. |

Placed in 3-11 hurdle starts on good or good to soft, all at around 2m4f; handy mark but hasn't looked as effective over this trip. |

Mostly running respectably this year but looks held by Special Dragon on Haydock form four weeks ago and others appeal more for win purposes. |

19th Apr 2025 Good 2m 3f 203y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Consistent spell last winter included a 2m3f win at Catterick (good to soft); not having such a steady time of it this winter but he hadn't been brushed off when coming down two out in the race won by The Paddy Pie at Sedgefield last month; in the mix if shrugging that off. |
4/1 |
Verdict
It’s difficult to know which way to turn here. KANKIN did at least sign off last season in decent form over hurdles and goes chasing in a modest race. Concrete King could be interesting on this return to fences off a career-low mark. Hokelami and Foxey are preferred of the remainder.[Alistair Jones]
