In depth

Verdict

This is a maiden that won’t take much winning. Salah probably has the best overall form but he’s now 0-12 and was behind Zyanair over 7f here two runs ago. DR. HOFFMAN was squeezed out at the start on his debut here in February and always playing catch-up. That experience should have taught him plenty and better is expected today. My Journey’s latest third was a step in the right direction but it’s difficult to make a strong case for many of the others.
