Verdict

It was soft going when Mutarakez won at Pontefract last time and he’s been raised 6lb. Alemaratalyoum is another who would prefer some cut and ACLIMATISE makes more appeal returning to a mile and dropping back down in class after finishing only fifth on the Turf course at Lingfield - Mark Johnston’s charge won a maiden race on fast ground last year. Zabeel Star won at Newcastle in March but hasn’t scored on Turf since 2015 and Be Kool tends to run his best races over 7f while though Fivehundredmiles won on this card last year he is 7lb higher.
