BANAADEER, a dual winner for Richard Hannon, went up 7lb for his victory at Jebel Ali in December but has continued to run well and won't mind being back on Turf. He gets the nod as Paul Hanagan chooses him over stable companion Greeb, three times a winner for Charlie Hills, who made a very promising start behind Championship here at the end of last month. Roossey scored twice for William Haggas and has been narrowly beaten on his two latest starts including at Jebel Ali last week when he had Kasb and Bustopher behind.
