In depth

Verdict

The rejuvenated San Antonio left Ubenkor a well beaten second when scoring over C&D last month. He has since gone close at Kempton and has to come into the reckoning. Bentley has also been in good form here of late and was beaten only half-a-length by Steed on his latest start. MR EMIRATI was beaten a similar distance by the same rival last month, but is less exposed having had just the five runs and Bryan Smart's charge can find the necessary improvement to take this. Mister Green produced a better effort at Lingfield last time but makes his debut on Fibresand here.
