Tight at the top here, with a number holding very similar claims on ratings, but last year's winner FOREST RANGER may be able to follow up despite failing to fire in Dubai. He may have most to fear from the highly-regarded Elarqam, who should have benefited from a breathing operation since last season, but Zabeel Prince and Vintager are others who could easily take a hand.
