Verdict
Fastidious hasn't been in the best of form but is 1lb lower than when scoring here in May. He was behind Guanabara Bay when Ado McGuinness' charge was beaten a head here three weeks ago and the latter, who was running his best race for a very long time, should make a bold bid to go one better. See You Mush was in consistent form on the all-weather in the UK last summer and a change of stables won't have done any harm though the vote goes to NAM (NAP). Tom Mullins' colt was racing in stronger company on Turf in the summer and gave notice of an imminent victory when staying on strongly over 6f last month.
