Verdict

Big Kev was second to Country Foolery, who runs in the opener, at the Surrey Union 12 days ago so punters will have a decent form guide. But Hill Forts Gloria's easy victory at the Kimblewick last month looks better form and Alan Hill's mare has every chance here, though her record under Rules is poor. TOMPATPEG showed plenty of heart to get off the mark between the flags last time and might be improving - he gets the nod under an accomplished amateur.
