Verdict
MUJAMEAD should have no problem with this step up in trip and after a cosy win last time gets the call ahead of fellow last time out success story Deep Reflection while Grand Art should have a say in the outcome. A five lengths victory at Uttoxeter over two miles brought to an end a long winless run for the pick and having scored over this far before he looks well treated under a 7lbs penalty. Deep Reflection was also a cosy winner on his last outing and should be set for a big run. He's been running his best races when fresh recently so it will be interesting to see if he goes as well after a nine day break. Grand Art was first passed the post on his first run for 290 on his debut for Tim Vaughan but was subsequently disqualified. He's up 13lbs for the run but he'll be fitter so might have enough to overcome that. Nobby Kivambo looks the only other to take seriously off a new career low mark but if Mujamead runs as well as he did last time he should score.
