The trio for the shortlist in this handicap are DHAAWIAH, The Scorching Wind and Feeling Fab and the vote goes to Dhaawiah. Godolphin are in decent form and Dhaawiah can maintain the momentum with a win here. She is a likeable filly and she looks to be on a fair mark for her handicap debut. She went close on her debut here so we know she will handle the surface and Frankie Dettori can steer her to another victory. The Scorching Wind won well over this course and distance last time and he has the benefit of a decent draw. The yard are very shrewd so if the market vibes are positive then it could pay to take the hint. Feeling Fab went close here last month and a reproduction of that effort would give her a chance and she is another with a positive high draw. The draw has also been kind for Ektimaal who has won over this course and distance and he could represent some each-way value. The form of the race he finished sixth in at Windsor last time has also been franked. A tough race and the vote goes to Dhaawiah.
