Verdict

Kabis Amigos caused a bit of a shock when winning last time out but the form has worked out already and he is taken to follow up this afternoon, Flying Bantam and Motu may provide most danger. It is not often that a Dandy Nicholls runner wins two on the bounce but his victory just twelve days ago has been boosted by the runner up's impressive success at Lingfield last week. The handicapper hasn't been too harsh and against mainly out of form rivals he can go in again. Flying Bantam pulled too hard when behind the selection last time out, but was a smooth winner the time before. If settling better today he should make his presence felt. Motu ran better than his final placing suggests when returning from a break and he will strip much fitter this afternoon. Prince Dayjur is another weighted to go well, but in a modest affair Kabis Amigos is our choice.
