Verdict

With Dettori struggling to do the weight, Kieren Fallon gets the leg up on Mahmood Al Zarooni's Dubai Prince who won both starts as a juvenile. He beat Seville on his debut so is obviously useful but may be best watched on his first start for Godolphin. Tazeez takes a significant drop in class and has to go on the short-list. Conditions are a worry here, however, whereas the easy ground is ideal for PENITENT. He hasn't been quite at his best so far this year and a visor didn't have much impact last time but cheekpieces are tried here and he should prove hard to beat if they have the desired effect. Jet Away may struggle conceding plenty of weight but is still preferred to Togiak and Bolivia, who may well need this.
