RODAINI began his career with four victories for Simon Crisford including a Doncaster Listed contest and was racing in much better company on Dirt here earlier this year. He looked just in need of the run on his reappearance three weeks ago and should strip fit enough to go one better. Parfait looked very progressive for John Gosden in the summer of last year and if continuing his progress would be very difficult to beat though he hasn't run since last July. Cosmo Charlie won this last year and raced in Group company later including at the highest level. A recent run will have put the edge on him and he can go well along with Taamol, well behind him at Jebel Ali in March but a comfortable winner over 7f here a fortnight ago.
