Verdict
Track, trip and going all look ideal for Muthabir but an absence since tailed off at Stratford in May is a concern. SANDY BOY threw away a winning opportunity at Exeter after a second at Chepstow so is on a recovery mission - he gets headgear here and can recoup losses. Bold Record was pulled up last time at Worcester but I'd Better Go Now landed a gamble at Wincanton last month and a double is not out of the question if he stays this longer trip. Pontresina keeps finding one too good and Fontley House is also frustrating but Montys Angel could be worth a market check.
