Arabie, Multiple Choice and General are the three to concentrate on in this opener and the nomination is given to Arabie. The selection looks the pick here on official BHB ratings and although he has not been running up to his mark for some time, he did hint at a return to form at Epsom last time behind Lady Mo. He is stepped up in trip here and looks the one to beat. Multiple Choice was having his first try over this course and distance when a close second behind Come What July last time. That was a really good effort and he looks more than capable of being involved in the shake-up at the finish. General could be interesting as he is dropped in trip and he ran well on his only previous try on this surface. He is also eased in grade here so he looks to have decent claims of being involved at the finish. Of the remainder, Certain Justice is from a leading yard and is worth a second look in the market, but for the winner we return to Arabie.
