In depth

Verdict

BEAUVAIS has only had three runs and is still an entire despite his age so connections must be hoping for better things and he looks well treated. Dolmen scored here last April and returned to form with a very easy victory at Sharjah last month while stable companion Welford had Conclusion behind when they occupied the places over 1m2f a fortnight ago. Hold Sway has only won once and that was at Newmarket in 2017 while Emirates Empire, who completed an all-weather double in the UK last spring, may need another run to put him straight.
