It’s no surprise to see Jim Crowley choose TAWLEED over the newcomer Mahaamel given the former has finished runner-up in a couple of tougher races than this. He came up against a winner rated 93 at York last time and should find this easier. The others with experience make no appeal but Underwater Attack is a half-brother to numerous winners including Royal Marine, who won a Group 1 as a two-year-old, with the Godolphin colt preferred to Stanley Baldwin of the newcomers.
