Wujood gets the confident vote to win this handicap with Bourgainville, and All right My Son rating the main dangers. The selection won with plenty in hand when beating Hidden Star last time out and although he has a penalty for that win he still looks ahead of the handicapper and will be hard to beat. Bourgainville rates the main danger as he has dropped to a handy mark and ran as if returning when third behind Mustajed last time and he will not be far away. All right My Son is another that could go well but he ran as if in the handicappers grip when well behind Boldenka last time and for that reason he is opposed. Of the remainder Lifted Way has conditions to suit and could run well at a price but for the winner we return to the progressive Wujood.
