Plenty of course winners in this line-up but none have a better record than MURAAQEB. He ran well after a break at Wolverhampton last weekend and will appreciate the return to this course. There wasn't much between Arlecchino's Arc and Dyageliv over C&D last time out and, with both in good heart, can go well again.
