KELP FOREST looked better than ever when quickening well to win going away over track and trip last month. On the evidence of that victory, a resultant 7-point penalty is unlikely to halt his momentum. Familiar foe KEBONALESEDI is weighted to pose more of a threat, so shouldn't be taken lightly. Fillies WUGUG and GO LIKE FLO could, however, give the selection most to fear. Both are favourably treated by the conditions (ratings/weights) of the race and they're also closely matched on collateral form. UNICORN ALERT and MONT LOISIR complete the shortlist.
Slow - bled - susp. when 11/2 and 13th of 14 runners, 15.55 lengths behind GREAT CAT over 1200m at KENILWORTH on 30 April 24. MR drop may help, well in.
Unable to ride out when 5/1 and 7th of 9 runners, 3.05 lengths behind ENEMY TERRITORY over 1400m at KENILWORTH on 25 June 24. Fitter/class drop, chance.
In touch, no finish when 7/1 and 9th of 12 runners, 5.00 lengths behind ALL ABOUT RONNIE over 1600m at KENILWORTH on 20 April 24. Better trip/draw, capable.
Slow st - vet ex/ND when 2/1 and 11th of 11 runners, 8.80 lengths behind GREEN MANDARIN over 1800m at KENILWORTH on 13 April 24. Rested - watch for now.
