Verdict

KEY BID raced over much further in the UK but was always travelling nicely over the track and trip last month and a 6lb rise shouldn't pose a problem. He gets the vote to complete a double as Mudaarab is only just showing signs of a return to his 2017 form. George Villiers was beaten just a short-head at Goodwood in August and must have a chance from this mark while Rio Tigre showed his liking for an artificial surface when completing a Jebel Ali double in November and was tackling Turf at Abu Dhabi last time. Empoli is in the veteran stage and it's a very long time since he won the Group 1 Preis Von Europa at Cologne but he ran in stronger company last season and will be better for last month's comeback
