MUNSARIM has been well beaten in decent handicaps of late but has won five claimers on the Polytrack this year and looks like adding another here. Fireback is nearest to the selection on official ratings but whether he can run up to his current mark is debatable on the evidence of this year's form. Sandbetweenourtoes looks a bigger threat if staying the longer distance while Aciano beat higher rated rivals when winning a seller at Wolverhampton last time and he could figure again. Thursday's Brighton winner Jackie Love has plenty to find on these terms.
