Verdict
Mutamaleq will have come on for his recent outing at Lingfield and the Irish import could figure in the finish. Countermarch finished fifth on her debut over 6f at Doncaster in November and the Selkirk filly should appreciate this longer trip, but may find SYMPHONIC DANCER hard to beat. Brian Baugh's filly improved on her debut effort to push the odds-on favourite Desert Shine all the way to the line over 7f here recently and looks capable of opening her account in this company. Stablemate Bountiful Guest's placed form in sellers doesn't add up to much and Fast Samurai makes more appeal.
