1st Rock The Kasbah 6/1 - 90 2nd Highland Lodge 20/1 - 60 3rd Fine Rightly 25/1 - 50 3rd Ptit Zig 33/1 - 50 Rock The Kasbah has a slight question mark with the going. He has only been on heavy once and came 2nd which was over hurdles, it wasnt a race of this calibre though, so its hard to tell. He goes ok on soft though, so you have to take it a bit on trust that he will go ok. His run in the Bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown in April alst year would give him a big chance in this, only beaten 2L, it was over 3f further than today, so he certainly has the stamina for this stamina sapping ground. The track will be no issue. He has been off the track for 98 days, but that for him is a good thing, with stats of 1, 2, 1, 1 after 63 days + off, so he should run well.  Highland Lodge is a grand old servent.

1st Jenkins 4/1 - 90 2nd Air Horse One 12/1 - 75 3rd Jabulani 20/1 - 60 3rd Burbank 14/1 - 60 Air Horse One actually stood out here more so than Jenkins, he is a C&D in todays conditions. The big negative is weight he carries. Top Weight on soft is not ideal. He is 2/2 at this trip and not been out the places in 3 runnings on soft, winning twice. I think the weight will be his undoing though, he is a good ew price. Jubulani will like the conditions (2/2 on soft) and is a winner at this distance, he has a bit to find, but has a wonderful light weight. Jenkins worries me, he wont mind the ground, he won last time out on soft, but it was a weak race, i would think he is better on good ground though. He has always been highly thought of by connections, but never built on his early promise. He wore blinkers last time out which seemed to help him, but as i said it was a weak race and he will require a lot more here. If connections are to be believed then he has the ability. A
