Verdict

CAPTAIN CULLEN is on a nice handicap mark and he's expected to come on for his recent reappearance effort. Settle For Red has place claims once again after a couple of good runs including a placed effort around here last time. Ahlan Bil Zain will appreciate the return to this sphere now.
  1. Captain Cullen
