Verdict
This is wide-open with only a speculative vote going the way of the returning MONADEE. The latter has had wind surgery since winning at Kempton in December where he beat no less than four subsequent winners. Mutafarrid also returns to action having won a handicap at Yarmouth in October and has been gelded since while Enrolment won at Newcastle last year but is 5lb higher today. Maksab is back on a winning mark while the likes of Los Camachos, Al Barg and Roman River are all unexposed and capable of better.
