Although favourites have won only three of the last 10 renewals of this, this year's market leader BATTAASH looks a cut above his field if he returns in the same sort of form as he ended last season. Those looking to take him on may feel that he is vulnerable on his first run after wind surgery, but he has the best form in the field and if all is well then he should be tough to beat despite his penalty. Should he fail to fire then there will be a queue forming to hit the line first, with Muthmir, Kachy and Havana Grey perhaps the trio who will be heading up the chasing posse.
