King Of Kingsfield
Reverts to hurdles after a decent chasing campaign last season that returned three wins from seven starts; not at his best in a Newbury Grade 2 nor an Aintree Grade 1 in April; 142 hurdles rating is the best in this company and won't be troubled by the ground; in the mix.

From the connections
“Jack [Kennedy, jockey] said King Of Kingsfield is relaxing a lot more. He was very keen as a young horse and Jack said he might have won snug if he hadn't nodded at the back of the second-last. I thought it was a good enough performance. As soon as the ground goes soft, you won't see him until the spring. He's won three races now over fences so we can't complain. He had to do the donkey work for the mare last season and it wasn't really fair on him - Gordon Elliott, trainer.”
“King Of Kingsfield had a couple of hard races last season, but I was delighted with the ground and Jack [Kennedy] gave him a beautiful ride. It was probably a bit unfair he had to do the donkey work for Brighterdaysahead last season, but he'll jump fences now and we'll have fun with him. I don't think he wants winter-heavy ground, but there's plenty of nice races for him - Gordon Elliott, trainer.”
“We were riding King Of Kingsfield all wrong and the last day we changed our minds. He's been disappointing up until now as I always thought he was a proper horse but he might just come good now. The ground is key to him - Gordon Elliott, trainer.”
“Jordan (Gainford)was kicking himself and said he got there too soon. King Of Kingsfield will be a short price in a maiden hurdle the next time! - Gordon Elliott, trainer.”
“King Of Kingsfield is a good horse and will be a lovely horse with a summer's grass - Gordon Elliott, trainer”
