Verdict
Motawaafeq prevailed by only a head at Kempton last time while track and trip Lafan is 5lb higher. Top Class Angel has been thereabouts on Turf recently having won off a similar mark here at this time last year while Shining Aitch went close at Doncaster. But better is expected from COMMIT NO NUISANCE with a recent outing under his belt and Bill Knight’s charge gets the vote having won over course and distance back in April.
