Verdict

A big field and a fascinating renewal of this Group 3 sprint which sees the evergreen Sole Power bidding for a hat-trick of victories. He missed out last year but was successful in 2013 and 2014 and Ryan Moore, who was on board for the second of those successes, is back in the saddle today having made alternative arrangements when Eddie Lynam's gelding finished behind Jungle Cat in the Al Quoz Sprint at Meydan last month. The Godolphin sprinter is an obvious danger re-opposing on better terms but the uphill finish here suits the Irish raider. Take Cover will no doubt blast out of the stalls again having just been touched off from a wide draw at Lingfield in February. Line Of Reason and Move In Time were behind that day but Cotai Glory is interesting having beaten Kingsgate Native, Desert Law and Steps at Doncaster in the autumn. WAADYs only defeats so far have come when stepped up to 6f. He handled the stiff 5f at Sandown well enough last summer to suggest he'll thrive here and he may well improve again this season over the minimum.
