        Verdict

        Gundogdu ended the last campaign with a victory here but was well beaten on his reappearance at Jebel Ali. Muhtaram didn’t run badly here last week but his big pay-day came at Jinma Lake back in May of last year. Tafaakhor won twice for Richard Hannon and ran reasonably well here last season without managing to win. MIGHTILY scored on heavy going for Andre Fabre and finished a close third on Polytrack at Chantilly. In the expectation he’ll handle this surface he looks the one to beat. His stable companion Native Appeal scored at Kempton for Charlie Appleby but was an expensive failure in subsequent runs.
