Race preview
RICH KING is entitled to improve plenty with an excellent effort in second on his handicap debut at Redcar last month and with the form of that race being franked since, he looks the one to be with off a 1lb higher mark. Animato was involved in a three-way-go at Beverley last time out and he is expected to figure prominently along with Grifter, who is relatively consistent but remains a maiden through nine starts. Bruno's Gold and Tamilla are not to be dismissed either.
