Verdict

A disappointing turn out but connections of Muharib Lady won't be complaining and Pat Murphy's mare gets the TEAMtalk vote. The seven-year-old has shown plenty of encouragement on both starts over the larger obstacles and ran particularly well when chasing home The Sawdust Kid over this trip at Fontwell last time. The daughter of Muharib should take plenty of beating with the forecast good to firm going and the trip in her favour off the same mark. Sir Williamwallace ran as though something was amiss on his latest start but had previously finished a close second over three miles at Huntingdon which would make him the main danger over doubtful stayer River Amora.
