Verdict

STRICTLY ART finished a close second over this C&D last time out and he can go one better by taking this staying handicap. The selection has the forecast underfoot conditions to suit and can get the better of Sula Island who has won already this term. Third can go the way of top weight Mustaaqeem should appreciate the drop in trip.
