      Verdict

      It's a surprise that Godolphin have hung on to CITY WALK, who is only moderate with a victory at Bath to his name, but he doesn't look badly treated in the context of this race. Four-times winner Dahawi looks ready to strike soon after a good run here a fortnight ago and Antonio Fresu takes over from an apprentice. Wufud hasn't been running badly and can't go much lower while Jadwal, a winner at Newmarket for Charlie Hills, will be better for last month's run over 7f at Jebel Ali where he only weakened in the closing stages. The latter's stable companion Ejaaby completed a double over 6f and 7f here early last year.
