Verdict

Law Enforcement finished second in soft ground at Sandown on his debut and it was also testing going when Mayaasem was runner-up at Haydock. Both have claims if as effective on today's fast ground while the 870,000 dollar colt Brave Command wears Godolphin's first colours ahead of Requested. Pira Palace has some improving to do if she's to figure but a chance is taken on Ayaar returning to form. He disappointed at Newbury last time but his earlier fourth in the Group 2 Railway Stakes at the Curragh is the best form on offer and a repeat will see him go very close.
