A winner over today's trip at Kempton in December, Lions Charge has been placed since but remains 7lb higher. By contrast, MY LORD has slipped back down to a winning mark and ran well for second over track and trip last week - David Evans' charge looks sure to be in the firing-line again. Innoko is another to consider on last month's narrow-margin defeat here while Splash Of Verve and Beausant return to action and both have a shout off their respective marks. Evervescent was not beaten far when fourth here last time and has placed over this longer trip before.
