Forecasts

Qaroun (9/4), Alrahaal (4/1), Epic Challenge (15/2), Sir Commander (8/1), Be My Angel (8/1), Haader (11/1), Calendimaggio (14/1), Change Maker (16/1), Stormer (25/1), Mirbat (33/1), Sea Millions (33/1)

Verdict

Alrahaal has already shown a fair level of ability and promises to develop into a useful thee-year-old, while Be My Angel shaped well on debut along with Calendimaggio and Sir Commander. They will have to progress to match strides with QAROUN, however. The only winner in the field, he can successfully concede weight all round after impressing as a juvenile. Sea Millions is an interesting newcomer who is worth noting in the betting.
  1. Qaroun
  2. Alrahaal
  3. Sir Commander
