Verdict

Another small-field affair, in which ready preference is for ALMASHRIQ. We still haven't seen the best of this War Front colt, and he wasn't disgraced in a typically competitive affair over slightly further at the July meeting earlier this month. He can get back to winning ways at the chief expense of Balgair who turned in a rare below-par performance last time, but he had been in good form before that with a respectable second over C&D two starts ago. Baba Ghanouj ran a similarly poor race when more was expected last time and should probably be given another chance. She looked a filly with plenty of potential in this sphere prior to that mishap.
  1. Almashriq
  2. Balgair
  3. Baba Ghanouj
