In depth
Verdict
Whatharm has been raised 10lb for winning at Gowran in June and Kinch recorded his win at Ayr over 6f. Guiding also steps up in trip after going close over 7f at Gowran but Munfallet posted a better effort over a mile at Leopardstown last time. Kudbegood had been thereabouts before disappointing at Cork but Munaajaat and Pursuit Of Magic are less exposed, as are both Musalsal and BUZZ KILLINGTON. Headgear is added to the former as he drops back down in trip while a big improvement is expected from the latter handicapping for the first time over a more suitable longer trip.
