Verdict
Mutamid had slipped down the weights before scoring at Wolverhampton and makes less appeal off a 4lb higher mark. Sands Chorus has been raised the same amount after winning at the same track but Showtime Blues put a string of poor efforts behind him when second over 7f here last time and can race off the same mark today. INKE is preferred, however, on her close-up third at Sandown last time with today's shorter trip likely to suit.
