Verdict
Kabreet is taken to land the nursery ahead of Anuvasteel, Western Roots, and Disengage. Kabreet justified favouritism over six furlongs here three weeks ago, winning by more than the official margin of half a length indicates. That success was no surprise judged on earlier efforts, and on breeding he should have no problem staying the extra furlong today. Anuvasteel improved a lot when tried on the Polytrack and won a nursery nicely enough last time. He is due to be gelded soon and is reckoned to be one to follow as a three-year-old next year. Western Roots was having his first outing since March when fourth here recently, and should improve enough to make a bold bid to add to his debut success on the track. Disengage has claims as well, given his trainer's record here, while Fadeela has her first taste of the Polytrack, and may be best watched, as her trainer was considering giving her a break after her Wolverhampton success. It has the makings of a competitive affair, but with improvement to come over this trip, Kabreet gets the vote.
