Verdict

MUHANDIS flopped when well fancied on his handicap debut last time. However, his previous second at Ripon to Crown Counsel, who won a decent handicap at Chester last week, is the stand out piece of form on offer and he's taken to get off the mark here. Ed Dunlop's charge would look the proverbial good thing if it wasn't for the presence of Emilio Largo. He'll be suited by the longer trip on his first start for Henry Cecil after just the sole outing over 5f last year, while Mokalif could prove best of the remainder.
