Verdict

HOMME PUBLIC ran a solid race at Sandown last month and still may have a bigger effort in the locker now returned to less testing ground given how well he quickened up at Wetherby on his penultimate start, so he makes plenty of appeal. Al Zaraqaan is on a roll and must be taken seriously, with First Impression also feared.
