In depth

Verdict

The vote here goes to Six Of Diamonds ahead of Mutual Friend and Murtaad. Six Of Diamonds made eyecatching late headway when third at Warwick on his racecourse debut and, even with nominal improvement, should go very well today. Mutual Friend's seasonal return, when fifth in a seven-furlong maiden here, gets him a solid mention in a run-of-the-mill maiden and the likes of Sweet Gale, who races in a first-time tongue-tie, Murtaad, who rates as the interesting newcomer, and Muhannak, who is surely better than his debut run suggested, all get mentions, while the betting might provide further clues. Once again, though, the selection is Six Of Diamonds.
