In depth

Verdict

ARABIAN KING carries a 5lb penalty for last week’s course and distance success. But he scored by over four lengths on that occasion and has enough scope to improve further. Motahassen’s earlier success here came over a mile and he never threatened when third over track and trip last time while the Irish raider Highway To Heaven also has something to prove over this far. Cape Hideaway debuts on the surface having only his second outing for Mick Appleby’s yard after finishing last at Kempton just four days ago.
