Forecasts

Flower Of Dubai (7/4), Zain Nights (7/2), Motazzen (7/2), Aggagio (9/2), State Legend (10/1)

Verdict

Very competitive, despite the small field, with all five holding pretty strong claims. Preference is for ZAIN NIGHTS, who appears to be versatile ground-wise and turned in his best effort of the season so far when finding just one too strong at Kempton last time. State Legend will be a big threat if coping with this step up in trip, while the 3-y-o filly Flower of Dubai and Aggagio and Motazzen, both of whom performed with credit at the big meeting here, can all be expected to get involved.

  1. ZAIN NIGHTS
  2. STATE LEGEND (IRE)
  3. FLOWER OF DUBAI
