Verdict

KING OF THE SAND represents a yard in form and is reunited with the rider who steered him to his sole success. He has dropped to an attractive mark and this looks a lot easier than his latest task. Graceful James went well on his last start here and is back down to his last winning mark and steps up to his optimum trip. Bayston Hill is consistent but exposed and so Forbidden Planet may be a bigger danger, particularly if the market speaks in his favour on debut for a top stable.
  1. King Of The Sand
  2. Graceful James
  3. Forbidden Planet
