Muzdaher was turned over when odds-on in a similar race at Musselburgh last time but the three-year-old could well be improving and looks worth backing against these rivals of who Isidore Bonheur and Burley Flame look the pick. The selection only went down by a length to the more experienced H Harrison at Musselburgh and remains feasibly well treated off just a 1lb higher mark. Tiber Tiger is gradually dropping to a fair mark and has to be respected along with Mark Brisbourne's Roman Maze, who is well in on all-weather form. Louisiade could do with some more help from the handicapper and of more interest is Isidore Bonheur, who is closely matched with the selection on a line through H Harrison. James Given's Burley Flame has claims on the pick of his form but is none too consistent and a safer option looks to be Muzdaher, who is taken to triumph over his older rivals.
