In depth

Verdict

EBNZAIDOON showed potential for the Gosden team last year before making a winning start for Doug Watson at Jebel Ali where he led a furlong out over that stiff 7f and stayed on strongly. He'll be much better suited by the extra here and can complete a double. Western Symphony only showed moderate form at last season's Carnival but it was a different matter on his return to action over 7f here three weeks ago when he won with plenty in hand. He's been hit with a 13lb rise but should still give a good account. Runner-up Tahdeed has since been beaten narrowly over the track and trip and must have a chance of reversing the form at the revised weights. Road Bloc was totally unconsidered for his track debut earlier this month but was a convincing winner while Hyde Park wins his share and was only beaten a short-head over the trip at Jebel Ali.
