Kingfast’s winning run came to an end at Leicester last month though he’d won over track and trip before that. Myklachi has been thereabouts since scoring in soft going at Ripon earlier but AGENT GIBBS may have finally fallen far enough down the weights to get his head back in front and gets the vote after placing in a higher grade at Doncaster. Ban Shoof was still well beaten when third here last time but Lawyersgunsn'money has more scope than most and may finish closer.
