Race preview
INSURPLUS ran a creditable race in second over this track and trip two starts ago and looked poised to challenge before his run petered out close home over 7f last time. The drop in trip should suit and he can get the better of Duke Cosimo, who won gamely at Kempton in October and remains on a competitive mark. Sir Ottoman needs a market check following a wind operation, while Kroy is consistent and should make his presence felt once more.
