Hamoody certainly created a favorable impression when making a winning debut at Newmarket last month but it is difficult to weigh up the merits of that success and a safer bet looks to be Dubai's Touch, who is preferred to Dazed And Amazed. The last mentioned would have claims on the form shown when winning a Listed race at Newbury in June but has twice disappointed since then so may be best watched. La Neige is difficult to recommend on recent evidence, while Bodes Galaxy has more to do than when landing a Pontefract handicap last time. Neither Mood Music nor Danebury Hill make much appeal and preference is for Dubai's Touch, who lost no caste in defeat behind Wednesday's impressive winner Strategic Prince at Newmarket last month and is taken to build on that here.
