Fujaira Bridge lowers his sights having struggled in the Dee Stakes at Chester last month. He won a maiden over today’s trip at Ripon earlier and should figure but HAKEEM (NAP) makes more appeal. The latter beat a more strongly fancied stablemate over track and trip on his debut and the third-placed horse has subsequently won. Moolazim and Excel Again ran well enough on their respective handicap debuts and the former steps up in trip while much better is expected from Hersigh back on a faster surface today. Kodiac Khan drops down in class and is not out of this either.
