Verdict

Reve De Soleil has the best form on offer and is selected ahead of Royal Muwasim and Noble Storm. There may also be more to come from Jobekani, who showed up well for a long way on his debut at Haydock 19 days ago. That run will have taught him plenty and, with Tolly Dean taking 3lb off with his claim, there are plenty of reasons to expect a big run. Noble Storm has speed in his pedigree and represents a yard that can ready one at the first time of asking. A market move in his direction would be interesting. Royal Muwasim was another that caught the eye on debut and is expected to be wiser this time around. Quite whether this stiff finish will help him at this stage of his career remains to be seen. But he travels a long way to gain this experience; so his connections must be confident the trip will be worthwhile. However, it is difficult to escape the claims of Reve De Soleil, who showed improvement to finish second in a stronger race at York at the end of last month. His proven ability to see out a sixth furlong is a strong persuading factor and the Eoghan O'Neill-trained colt is the one with the most solid claims in the opener.
