In depth
Verdict
Monumental Man arrives in fine form having won three of his last four starts but all in lesser grade races. However, he should ensure a decent pace along with the formerly smart sprinter Rowe Park and the returning Howyadoingnotsobad. A battle for the lead would suit ARTIC LYNX, who is usually held up for a late finish and Robert Cowell's charge gets the nod ahead of Lujeanie. The latter has slipped down the weights since scoring here in December and should also be in the mix but Song Of Parkes usually finds at least one too good.
