In depth
Verdict
Mutamid won over 7f at Kempton recently and stays this longer trip. He should be in the mix along with Ripon runner-up Count Montecristo while Smokethatthunders went close to ending a long losing run when beaten less than a length at Leicester, though has done all his winning so far over shorter trips. ROCKWOOD drops back in distance after a decent effort at York and went close here before that. He won three times at Wolverhampton earlier in the year and a bold bid is expected in this. Pirate's Treasure notched a hat-trick on the all-weather at the start of this year but Al Hamd is preferred off his current mark.
