      Verdict

      MURRIN is taken to gain revenge on Bee Stinger whilst there may be a little more to come from Marmooq. Stephen Donohoe teams up with Murrin for the first time since the pair were successful and Murrin is 7lbs better off with his course and distance conqueror for just over two and three quarter lengths. Bee Stinger took advantage of a decent mark that day and a 7lb rise isn't insurmountable given that he won off eighty a year ago. Luke Morris has formed a good partnership with Stan Moore this winter so it's worth noting that he retains the ride on Marmooq following their victory at Kempton; he's running as well as he has done for many a year and may still be competitive. Lopinot has ground to make up on Bee Stinger and the selection on their running at Lingfield but he didn't enjoy the run of the race and is capable of going close in this tight knit handicap where we've awarded the vote to Murrin.
