MR MACATTACK is on a long losing run but has finally dropped to mark he looks capable of winning off given his recent close-up second at Leicester. He just failed to catch the progressive Nimue on that occasion and gets the vote dropped in class here. Mujaadel scored off a 5lb lower mark over C&D last season and looks a threat, while Frognal returned to action with a respectable second at Catterick but is drawn wide here and fifth-placed Lindoro may reverse the form. Hakuna Matata won on his debut at Newcastle in October and is another worthy of consideration.
