Verdict
A hat-trick looks on the cards for MUNSARIM as he won a shade more cosily than the narrow winning margin would suggest at Lingfield last week when beating Red Somerset. He looks the one to beat in this with Faithful Ruler coming out next best on his recent form in sellers including a win here last month. Country Road can be given a chance with a recent comeback run at Wolverhampton under his belt, while Shabak Hom should go well once again without winning. Irie Ute and Dream Of Fortune have a bit to find at the weights and will have easier opportunities in the future.
