This is a weak race where many of the contenders have little recent good form (or good form whatsoever) of which to speak. One exception to that is LORD MURPHY, who has finished in the first two in all of his three most recent starts and though he's shooting up the handicap as a result has to given careful consideration, especially as he's still unexposed. He's the tentative pick ahead of Stormbound, who may be getting away lightly at the weights even with a penalty given the manner of his win last time, while Three Majors is also interesting on his first start in Britain.
