Knight Of Allen

Selected at: 11/8

Knight Of Allen showed some fair form as a juvenile hurdler and was a good third in a very competitive handicap at Haydock when last seen. Up 3lb for that effort, this race looks significantly easier and a similar performance should put Jane Williams’ five-year-old bang in the mix.
