Punda Maria found one too good attempting to make all at Leicester and looks vulnerable again if adopting similar tactics here with MCQUEEN looking ready to strike. The latter gets a change of headgear on the back of a third at Lingfield and is taken to return to winning ways. Muveran is back on a winning mark and can figure but Shifter’s recent second came in a lowly classified race.
