THE KID improved massively for the switch to handicap company last time, and is maybe a little lucky to be on the same mark after such a promising run. This looks the perfect time to take the small step forward require and finally get off the mark over hurdles. Karl Marx is another to consider provided he can prove he is as effective in the likely testing conditions the field will face today, as well as Orthodox Lad, who shouldn't have any issue with ease in the ground.
