Verdict

Pedigree suggests Dirham Emirati will improve for this extra distance as he step up from a mile and is preferred to She Is Fierce. Reverential finished in front of Act Naturally when runner-up at Wolverhampton last month though was no match for the impressive winner Sea The Shells trained by Mark Johnston. The latter introduces another newcomer today in HOME AND DRY, the second foal of high-class stayer Pale Mimosa and he may prove good enough at the first time of asking.
