Verdict

INDIAN WARRIOR was beaten only a head at Windsor on his latest start and can open his account in this. He finished a length ahead of the re-opposing Zalshah but should confirm running on the same terms. Inuk ran poorly last time and the remainder with experience of the racecourse have shown little so far leaving the newcomer Special Purpose with a chance for the Haggas yard.
