In depth

Verdict

SPAHI won over 1m4f here a week ago and is likely to start a short price in this company despite a penalty. The well-beaten pair Kipchak and Kingaroo re-oppose and should ensure a decent pace once again without threatening the selection. The rest of today's opposition remain badly out of sorts with Dunaskin continuing to struggle and Flying Applause and Prince Golan having yet to prove they stay today's distance.
