Verdict

This is a hard one to call, with Amarna getting the nod over such as Axiom, Ezdiyaad, Andmoreagain and La Lunette. With a lot of the big southern yards well represented, the market may be the best guide in truth, but there is sure to be plenty of confidence behind Amarna after his promising Sandown debut fourth a fortnight ago. A full-brother to Librettist and a half-brother to Dubai Destination, he should cope with the switch to this surface, and will not be nearly as green this time. Axiom is a bit more experienced, having had two outings to date, and he will find this surface kinder than the heavy ground that he encountered at Ripon. Andmoreagain still looks far from the finished article, and La Lunette makes her debut but hails from an in-form stable. Ezdiyaad disappointed on his Newmarket bow, only beating one home, and is better than that, but the percentage call is Amarna.
