Verdict

A customary small field for this Group 2 contest but it promises to be a cracker, MUJTABA getting the verdict to make his first outing at pattern level a winning one after his demolition job in a handicap at Newbury 6 months ago. Point Lonsdale wasted no time getting back on the up when making a winning return at the Curragh last month, so he's put forward as the main danger, with recent Kempton scorer Foxes Tales taken to fill out third spot.
