Verdict

Moxy Mares hasn't won since April 2018 and is only 2lb lower though he almost made all at Leicester last month. Dubai Acclaim is back on the same mark as his last victory so could go well at a price but BAVARDAGES can gain compensation for an unlucky run of form. A dual winner on Polytrack in the autumn, he had had excuses when twice narrowly beaten on Tapeta then unseated his rider after clipping heels at Beverley. Mustaqbal hails from a yard in top form and is dropping to a winnable mark while Spiritofthenorth is progressing with each run and ran very well at Beverley last time.
