Rabshih can land the opener at the expense of Winged Flight and Glorious Prince. The selection is a newcomer from the Stoute yard and is bound to know its job first time of asking as connections have a good track record with their first time outers. She is nicely bred and is therefore worth noting in the market. Winged Flight ran well on his debut and lost nothing in defeat behind To The Max at Ascot that day. With improvement very much likely it wont be long before he breaks his maiden tag. Glorious Prince improved from his debut at Folkestone to finish an eye catching third here over seven furlongs last time out. This shorter trip should suit so with conditions on his side he is another to note in the betting market. But for the winner we will side with the Stoute newcomer Rabshih.
