Verdict
Muqarrar can get the better of Jungle Lion, with Game Guru and Zeloso others worth a mention. This looks wide-open, and only a tentative vote goes to Muqarrar who was successful in Banded company over the course and distance four days ago. Successful in soft ground at Ayr last October, the fibresand seemed to suit him better than the Polytrack did at Lingfield the time before last. With the useful Danny Tudhope on board, he has as good a chance as any. Jungle Lion made up for a previously unlucky effort when scoring well over the track and trip in Banded company last time and can go well from stall one, while Game Guru has improved for the step up to middle-distances of late and is another to consider. Zeloso has more to do than when scoring in claiming company over further last time out, and we return to Muqarrar as the answer.
