    Verdict

    Munsef boasts the highest official rating of these but has looked a shadow of his old self for some time now, hence the drop in class. Traphalgar and Abulharith have it all to do on these terms so this looks to be between Country Road and CAMPS BAY. The former has won twice over C&D recently and looks to have every chance but the latter's third here in November on his Polytrack debut came in much better company and Conor Dore's gelding looks to have the edge.
