Qaabil won over a mile at Gowran and finished third over that trip at Thurles so this is a big step up in trip. CHUTZPAL (NAP) produced easily his best run to date when runner-up over the track and trip last week and a similar effort should be good enough as Muntahez ran poorly on his only start here and, though running quite well over hurdles, he may find this on the short side. Well Funded has been in excellent form over timber, scoring twice in the past few weeks, though he's another who could find this on the sharp side.
