      Verdict

      FIRE KING was having only his second start of the season when landing an amateur race at Salisbury last time. There should be more to come from him and he can follow-up in this company as none of today's rivals can be recommended with any confidence. Ocean Legend has yet to win on Turf and has failed to threaten recently despite a lower mark while Focail Eile and Muhandis have the past form to figure but arrive out of sorts. Cyril The Squirrel scored here back in 2010 and may do better on his third outing of the year.
