Plenty of guesswork needed here as Muarrab returns to action after a debut sixth at Goodwood in July which wasn't much better form than his stablemate Cyrus Sod achieved when the latter occupied the same position at Yarmouth in October. Kogershin showed only minimal progress at Newbury on his second start and the safest option could be to stick with COOLER CLIMES. He was beaten around three lengths on his debut at Kempton last month and as the Khalid Abdullah-owned colt should have benefited for that experience, he's taken to open his account today. American Bling and Fauran make most appeal of the newcomers.
