Verdict

A competitive Listed event which was won last year by THEGREATCOLLECTION, who had Alkaamel as one of his victims in a convincing victory over Secret Ambition. Doug Watson's charge continued in fine form throughout the campaign, twice being narrowly beaten in Group 2 company, and can go in again. He holds Ajuste Fiscal on their placed efforts in Round 2 of the Al Maktoum Challenge while stablemates Golden Goal and Midnight Sands are held on a line through Secret Ambition, though both are class acts on their day and stable jockey Pat Dobbs rides the latter. Panadol, the only three-year-old in the line-up, should make great strides this season after just three starts in the spring, including a Listed victory over the track and trip, and could provide the main threat.
