    Verdict

    A trick puzzle to solve but Singapore Sling should be thereabouts if fully wound-up. Intrude has never won on Turf but only found one too good here last time while Suqoor is starting to look well treated, though has yet to race beyond 7f. THAQAFFA made all at Nottingham last month and should be allowed an uncontested lead here. If Silvestre De Sousa gets the fractions right, the top weight could defy a 6lb rise as Berrahri is looking a few pounds too high now.
