Verdict
This looks tricky but LAMLOOM has gone close in three subsequent starts since winning at Nottingham back in April. He still has something to prove off his current mark but question marks also hang over the opposition. Mudallel has failed to threaten since landing a double at Kempton in August while Ghayyar and Club Wexford have struggled with a rise in the weights having both won earlier this season. My Amigo can be forgiven a below-par effort in an amateurs' race last time but notched up a string of seconds before that while Afandem looks no nearer ending a long losing run.
