KINGDOM OF TIME (1) was in the firing line on the turn and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1600m at Southwell All Weather after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Nicely placed to take this out. MR SWIVELL (5) lifted strongly but just failed to pick up the winner when fresh from a spell last start over 1600m at Chelmsford. Should tighten right up following that outing. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. BASS PLAYER (9) last raced when successful by a head over 1700m at Wolverhampton four-and-a-half months ago. Worth plenty of thought. ROYAL VELVET (4) returns from a layoff of seven months. Scored over 1400m at Newcastle All Weather to launch the last campaign. One to consider.
