Verdict

A large field goes to post for this selling hurdle but it throws up more questions than answers. However the principals look to Thorntoun Holm, Dubai Seven Stars and Indian Beat and the tentative vote goes to Dubai Seven Stars. The five-year-old is thrown in on his best form and if he sees out the trip he will be hard to beat. Thorntoun Holm rates the main danger on his bumper form, however he has not progressed as expected and for that reason he is opposed. Indian Beat could also go well as he was a good second behind Beau Torero last time, but the fact that he is still a maiden after 31 runs dampens confidence. Of the remainder, Lady Ward could go well at a big price if she reproduces her best form but she has disappointed of late so we are happy to side with Dubai Seven Stars.
