Verdict

Munfallet is down to his lowest mark for over two years and would be hard to overcome if recapturing something approaching his best and the forecast better ground may enable him to do so. However, FARLEIGH MAC appeals as the one here with scope for further progression after just eight starts and may be good enough to see off predominantly older rivals. 6f on good ground looks to represent optimum conditions and his latest effort when placed behind Ashpan Sam reads well, whilst also suggesting he remains on the upgrade. Fellow three-year-old Juan Horsepower would be a leading player on early season progressive form but has gone off the boil the last twice and needs to bounce back. Bahamian Dollar and Morache Music cannot be ignored either in a competitive sprint handicap and the best race on the card.
