Race preview
GIFT OF KINGS showed far greater promise when fourth at Doncaster last time out behind some smart rivals and a mark of 71 could seriously underestimate this son of Kingman. Kevin Ryan's charge finished sixth in the Convivial at York before a poor Ayr showing, but got his career back on track when last seen and receives plenty of weight here. Cloud Drift failed to land a gamble on Town Moor recently but wasn't beaten far, while Tiritomba was fourth on stable debut for Hugo Palmer in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot last month and could build on that.
