MUARRAB won this easily last year before a brilliant victory in the Golden Shaheen. He's been beaten in all three comeback runs this term and isn't as well drawn as his main rivals but he's taken to reverse recent running with both Cool Cowboy and Reynaldothewizard. The former has done connections proud winning here from 6f to a mile, twice at Group 3 level. He appeared to get the run of the race last time and may not confirm the form with the selection but Reynaldothewizard, whose last 21 runs have been on this track, winning ten of them, holds verdicts over both his main rivals and looked as good as ever last month. Comicas had Dundonnell a length behind in a handicap last month but the runner-up was conceding 11lb and they meet off levels here.
