Verdict

KHATHAK will likely start a short price to defy a penalty. Charlie Appleby’s charge beat a horse rated 84 when making a winning debut at Kempton last month and is preferred to stablemate and newcomer Sarangani. The latter is related to a Group 2 winner and makes more appeal than Oceania Legend while Come On John beat only one of nine runners over 7f here and steps up in trip.
