In depth

Verdict

Majestic Mambo has never won but has chased home some smart performers in his time. RASTRELLI won three races for Godolphin and made a promising debut for new connections when staying on strongly over a mile last month. His stable companion Franz Kafka easily won a minor handicap over the track and trip and didn't take to the Dirt track next time. Zamaam hasn't run over a trip this short for well over two years but Bleu Marine had some strong form for Andre Fabre last summer and doesn't look overburdened. Lucius Tiberius has found 1m4f taxing his stamina the last twice and his three career victories have all been over this trip while his unexposed stable companion Star Safari has a brilliant pedigree and makes his handicap debut from a lowly mark.
