      Verdict

      Cobo Bay's has done all his winning on Polytrack and Mush Mir has proved disappointing since winning at Lingfield in December. Prince Charlemagne is a multiple winner on Polytrack and could figure on his belated debut on this surface, but MEDITERRANEAN SEA gets the vote. A string of recent placed efforts may give the impression she's hard to win with but she was unlucky to come up against the progressive Stanley Rigby last time, and Dontpaytheferryman before that, and John Jenkins' mare deserves another chance here. Deejan has a bit to find with the selection on latest running.
