          Verdict

          Salvadori has never scored here but has won three of his last four at Jebel Ali, all on Dirt. All three of Acolyte's victories in the UK for Roger Charlton were gained on all-weather surfaces and it's well over a year since he last raced. Roossey was narrowly beaten in a similar race on this card a year ago and continued to perform well. A run here in November should have put him straight for another attempt. Beachey Head is better over further so this can go to the lightly-raced LYTHAM ST ANNES (NAP). A winner at Epsom for David Simcock, he ran well on his debut here in February and led for much of the way over an extra furlong at Jebel Ali last month. Akeed Champion, a dual winner in the UK in 2015, gained a convincing victory at Abu Dhabi last month and looks a big threat.
