Verdict

A smart hurdler, Teqany should be up to winning a race like this on the level but he finished just behind Warranty over track and trip last month and is no better off at the weights. DEREHAM takes a while to find his stride so the long straight here should play to his strengths and he acts on fast ground. Retrospect looks the pick of the remainder.
