Verdict
KINGS LODGE can open his account for Nicky Henderson here. Sent off favourite on his debut at Bangor last month, he showed signs of inexperience when losing his position, only to stay on again and claim fourth place behind Avoca Promise. He'll have grown up a little for that outing and is just preferred to Dineur. Alan King's five-year-old has shown promise on both starts but doesn't help his cause by refusing to settle. Tealissio finished a respectable third on his debut last year and All That Remains should go well having won an Irish point-to-point, but it's difficult to see either troubling the two principals.
