The Gosden yard don't run many in maiden handicaps but have MISSILE in here off a mark of 67. The Dubawi filly improved for the step into handicap company last time when only beaten a head and connections will be keen to notch a win with paddocks value in mind. The blinkers applied last time are retained. First-time blinkers are applied to Jebel Dukhan, who has shown ability at this level but also gave the impression at Hamilton last time of not being entirely straightforward. He should still go well, whilst Godolphin's Natural Colour was an eyecatcher at Nottingham and is seen as the main danger to the selection will more to come for sure.
