    Verdict

    MUKALAL is upped in class off a higher mark as he bids for a hat-trick but is progressing well and should make another bold bid. Mutarabby went close in a maiden race at Haydock and makes his handicap debut while Wealth Tax scored over track and trip recently and is preferred to Kenstone, who landed a Class 5 contest at Thirsk last month. The latter finished ahead of North Creek here earlier and Chris Wall’s charge went on to win over 7f at Kempton but Bunbury finished no closer under today’s apprentice at Ascot last time.
