Verdict

NEED TO KNOW (NAP) was in very good form throughout last winter and continued in the same vein with a comfortable victory at Jebel Ali three weeks ago. He'll take some beating here. Shamaal Nibras last won a race at Salisbury in 2012 but gave notice that his turn is not far off with a good run over 7f here where he was staying on well. Oisin Murphy has hit the new season running and will ensure Canwinn gets involved though he was 10l behind the selection at Jebel Ali in February. Marching Time hasn't won for three years but that elusive victory looks imminent after he was caught on the line by Royal Revival at Abu Dhabi.
