Verdict

The win of AHLAN BIL ZAIN here last month over 7f came with the four-year-old coming off a strong pace. The Elusive City gelding can repeat the feat here taking advantage of the pace set by the likes of Geological, Polly Glide and Pushaq, to land the spoils. The inform Joseph O'Brien-trained Equitant can prove to be the biggest danger.
