Verdict

Dubai Mile represents last year’s winning yard though the strength of his form is below that of today’s opposition while Goodwood maiden winner The Foxes also needs to take another step forward. Aidan O’Brien has won two of the last four renewals but Greenland was beaten in Listed company before scoring over 7f at Roscommon and FLYING HONOURS looks the one to beat. The latter beat a subsequent winner by over five lengths in a Listed race over today’s trip at Salisbury last month and should have the measure of these.
