Race Tip
A tricky event. KING'S SCHOOL (2) shaped as though a step up to 1m4f would suit when third over 1m2f at Chelmsford on his final start as a two-year-old. Gelded subsequently and could prove capable of making a winning handicap debut with progress likely. Top-weight ACROSS EARTH (1) did well in three outings to date. That was last season and must be respected off this opening mark. Narrow Wolverhampton (1m1 1/2f) runner-up FREE SPEECH (3) looks interesting stepping up in distance on reappearance. ATTILA THE HONEY (4) rounds out the quartet.
