It is tempting to look at newcomers Purdey's Gift, from a stable that has been in good form for some time and also Desert Friend, from a yard whose two-year-olds have enjoyed a better-than-average season, when trying to find the winner here. Either may be up to the task, but we will give the experienced AL MUREIB another chance to break his duck. He went very close last time and third that day, who was 5L adrift, has since franked the form. He should prove tough to topple.
