Verdict

ZAINALARAB ended his 3-y-o campaign in a bit of a lull, but its significant connections have kept the faith with him (gelded in the interim), so's put forward as a tentative selection returning from 8 months off. Frankie Dettori gets on board Roman Dragon for the first time, and he could give the selection most to think about with a recent run under his belt, ahead of Persuasion and Royal Pleasure, in what looks a wide-open finale.

  1. ZAINALARAB
  2. ROMAN DRAGON
  3. PERSUASION (IRE)
