Verdict
MUSHARRIF is the one to beat if handling the soft ground and will probably start at restrictive odds. Sir Michael Stoute's charge was beaten only a head at Salisbury last time and that is easily the strongest form on offer. Totally Magic looks next best on today's terms after a modest handicap debut at Doncaster and should have the measure of Swiss Lait and Cheeky Chapman while Bionic Indian may come out best of the remainder.
