Verdict

Those with experience inspire little confidence with Dubai Dirham and Nevada perhaps the most likely to improve as they both return to action. But this can go to a newcomer and of those, FRENCH CRUSADER is a half-brother to four winners on the Flat in France and should have enough speed to figure over today’s 1m6f trip. Cheeky Chica is out of a bumper winner and preferred to Blazing Gold and Topline Diva.
