The race could turn into a match between two progressive horses at both ends of the weights, but this looks a good opportunity for the consistent
MONSIEUR LAMBRAYS to return to winning ways. While he does run in snatches, the four-year-old tends to deliver late on and should thrive over this trip. With the visor applied and only 1lb rise, he looks hard to beat.
Thaqaffa was put in his place by a well-handicapped horse last time (who has since run well in higher company) and is now being given a chance by the handicapper, while the likes of
Mouriyani and
High Commissioner have likeable form books but may just be in the grip of the handicapper at this stage.
