Verdict

Tadawul, Arry Dash and Strathspey are three against the field in this classified stakes race and the confident vote goes to Tadawul. The selection is one of the least exposed in the race so has plenty of scope for improvement. He finished in mid-division behind Zameyla in a much better race last time and need only run up to that mark to score. Arry Dash rates the main danger as he is game and consistent and is sure to run his race. He finished in mid-division behind Best Be Going last time and has definite place claims but he lacks the scope of the selection. Strathspey is another worthy of respect on his best form but he is becoming hard to win with so he is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder Mad Carew and Prairie Wolf are both from yards in form so are worth noting in the market but they have disappointed of late and for the winner we return to the unexposed Tadawul.
