Irish challenger MUNSIF proved a useful winner on the Flat for Roger Varian and can build on earlier promise to gain a first win in this sphere now the headgear goes back on for his first foray into handicap company. Talakan also has better days ahead of him and rates a big threat though, while Senator is another who can't be discounted easily in this cracking juvenile handicap.
