        Verdict

        The Russia-trained Azure Coast came from last to first in the UAE 2000 Guineas over a mile and his style of running suggests he'll be even better over this trip. He holds Kiefer and subsequent winner Quality Boone on that classic run while Combustion is another stepping up in trip having won a Listed race over a mile at Tokyo with Crown Pride just over three lengths behind. Churchill Downs winner Gilded Age needs to find improvement but compatriot Pinehurst is already a Grade 1 winner having won the Del Mar Futurity and landed a lucrative Group 3 at Riyadh last month from today's rival SEKIFU. The latter was closing fast at the line and today's longer trip can see him go one better.
