      Verdict

      UPAVON found only one too good over track and trip recently and finished ahead of several of these in the process. He’s closely matched with Go Far on that form but should confirm running with both Russian Soul and Gentlemen. Bowson Fred also finished second here last time but over the minimum trip with Judicial and Shamshon behind. He’s yet to score over 6f while Eastern Impact has been racing at Meydan without success though slips further down the weights and Old Fashioned won in Norway last year.
