Verdict

A race which is undoubtedly far more about the future than the present, but it's highly unlikely to feature a star performer like Gronkowski (took the equivalent race with ease in 2017). Dubai Sunset should stay this trip and assuming she's stronger for her recent 7f course debut fifth to Accommodate enters the reckoning, whilst the newcomers Battle Of Pembroke (David Simcock) and Dubai Warrior (John Gosden) are likely types. However, a more speculative shout is the Richard Hannon-trained DAYS OF GLORY. He wasn't entirely disgraced on debut at Newbury (good to soft), and based upon pedigree should appreciate this switch to Polytrack.
  1. Days Of Glory
  2. Dubai Sunset
  3. Nabbeyl
