        Verdict

        The lightly-raced I Will Excel has to be the form pick on his juvenile form though he's yet to race on Polytrack and has his first start since August. He may have to give best here to WYCHWOOD WARRIOR, who landed a track and trip maiden in November and has subsequently run two fine races in Dubai including when placed in a Listed contest last month. Muraabit showed improved form when staying on behind Song Of Love last time so it's a surprise to see him dropping down in trip.
