Elrafa Mujahid hit winning form last time and can follow up this afternoon at the expense of Fasylitator and Resplendent Prince. Erst Oertel's three-year-old kept on really strongly to beat Nimello at Southwell last month. She was making her debut for the yard and the change of scenery has obviously done her the world of good and if she can race to that level of form again she can follow up. Fasylitator was impressive when winning over ten furlongs here in October and the drop in trip shouldn't be a problem. He does looked handicapped to his best but could still get into the places. Resplendent Prince is dropping down the handicap and has strong claims on bits and pieces of form. Meanwhile Lord Of Dreams went close last time and should be involved in the finish again today. Overall it is quite a tricky race but Elrafa Mujahid can make it back to back wins.
