Verdict

Sadeedd, a winner at Jebel Ali a year ago, had Hyde Park behind on last month's reappearance and can do better. Eshaasy won at Sandown for John Gosden last year and has moved to Doug Watson after showing little in three starts last winter. The stable also run DOUBLE ORB, placed in all three starts since arriving from the USA and much the better for last month's run where he missed the break. Al Madhar won his first two races for Richard Hannon but didn't make the expected progress.
