FormscanBy Tom Weekes - KILLANEY KING is well suited by testing ground conditions and ran well in a recent course handicap. Lightly-enough raced, the selection has shown consistent form and while he finished behind exposed Petit King here last month, that was his first run for 206 days, so can progress. Give Him A Chance finished a useful second at Cheltenham last month and while he is well suited by this distance and is also dependable, testing ground mightn’t ideally suit. San Hilario, who refused to leave the stalls on career debut at Nancy in October 2024 but showed form the following month, has shown promise in handicaps recently and being a four-year-old, can continue to improve. From The Ashes has a higher chase mark but has yet to win over hurdles.
