      Verdict

      Welcome Ben has won his last three and goes from strength-to-strength. But he didn’t have much to spare over MARTILOO here last month and Pauline Robson’s charge, 4lb better off, can reverse the placings and finally get off the mark. Muwalla has been in good form lately and has already been placed around here several times so can’t be ignored, though collateral form suggests there is little between him and Argentix on today’s terms.
