      In depth

      Verdict

      KION carries a double penalty for recent wins at Wolverhampton and Chelmsford. He may still be good enough given Mother of Dragons looks no nearer winning and the others with a chance are returning from lay-offs. Walk On Walter’s best effort of last year was a fourth over today’s trip at Kempton while both Big Brave Bob and Dubai Classic showed some ability in soft ground over 5f on their respective debuts. Kindler has shown nothing so far.
